I kid you not, I said pretty much the exact same thing to the programmers as they were trying to push code.

"Do you need me to hold your hand? Deep breaths. Inhale, exhale."

I was met with blank stares...

Another more recent quote. "No. Put that away. I'm throwing that piece of wood out before someone sees what an abomination we've made." From when we were waiting for some parts to come in and playing with a piece of 2x4.

On this topic, here's a couple of the most common sayings of our season:

"where'd all the hex bearings go" "they're all on the robot already"
"does someone know where I can find more hex bearings?"
"Let's just name the robot 'Bearings.'"
"Who used all the spacers?"

I wasn't quoting doctor sesuss. My reaction to hearing Dr Seuss said something similar was hilarious, but the back story on why I have that quote is a little more then I am willing to share with people on the internet.

"This screwdriver is very colorful"
"It's not colorful, its just bright orange and metal"
"Bright is a color"
