Continued from last year.

"We'll fix that later."

One of our electricians saws a joystick in half to see the wire configuration.
Mentors rush over going "Why did you do that??? You could have used a screwdriver to open it!"
Electrician clutches the two joystick halves defensively and says "It was fun."

"Oh yeah, we'll be pulling an all-nighter tonight..."

Teammate : We kinda have a problem with the shooter
Me: What is it now?
Teammate : The ball only goes high enough to hit dale(BTW, dale is 6'5") in the face. We're two feet off!
Me: Tell dale to shrink

The Monday before ship our teacher just randomly said "I'm miss my doggie."

Then there is our team classic "Good enough for goverment work."

“What’s the worst that could happen? It falls and hits some kid.”

A conversation between my mentor and I, pertaining CNC operation I know nothing about:

Mentor: Now, how should we do this?

Me: The right way.

Mentor: What's the right way?

Me: Not the wrong way!

"It's not a mistake, it's a modification!"

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 

This was one continuous conversation

A: Ow, I cut my finger
B: Let's go to Taco Bell!
C: Does it hurt?
D: Only after you eat there.

When aiming our shooter: "More sine!"

"Where are you going?"
"Wendy's." (there's a Wendy's practically next door to the warehouse. It comes in handy :) )

"Are they redesigning the drive train on ship day?"
"yea"

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
 

Well, beginning last year, we had one member that would alway say "Hey guys, let's just quit and try again next year." He said this whenever something went wrong, no matter how little.

And a quote by our programmer which for two years I still cannot figure out...
"In Every Age"
He writes on everything he gets his hands on, and he says that we'll never be able to figure it out. If one of you feel like figuring it out, please go ahead and do so, I've just about given up on it. :confused:

By rearranging the letters is says: "a very genie" Apparently your programmer was a genie in his past life, and very much so. It is quite likely he doesn't even realize this.
My suggestion: Take your chances and rub his computer. Maybe if you're lucky you can get one wish out of him.

"It needs more torque? Add some grease.."

And in response to the weird looks...

"What.. someone on Chief Delphi said it!"
