Post 166 has been long past...cry

When you look at a robot in a game or movie and wince at how much programming would go into its AI. (WOPR, I'm looking at you and your unrealistic-at-the-time AI!)

When you already have a picture with Dean and Dave, and now NEED to go to Atlanta to get one with Woodie.

when you followed Dave through the pits in order to get to a clearing for a picture.

as for the WOPR, i really wondered why there was about 1000 flashing lights on it. it did not seem like they could be interpreted in any way for anything useful.

A strange game.
The only winning move is not to play.

How about a nice game of chess?"

when you watch the FIRST video during kickoff and realize numerous members of your team are in it

When pizza hut stops calling your phone when they go to deliver to the address of your location to ask where exactly you are, what door to go into, and everything else, and then also bring plates and crushed pepper and parmasan cheese topping when we had never gotten that before. Lets just say lots of pizza has been ordered.

You know you're overdosed on FIRST when you tear apart robots from past years to build the new one

When someone ask's you: "what's today's date?" and you automatically reply 329. Last year, at the SPBLI Regional, the final day was our teams date. And we're proud to say when they annoucned the chairman's award winner, they ended the speech with "there's only one question to end this with; what's today's date?" Twas an amazing day.

You find yourself conversing entirely in C++("Okay, it's while targetAquired...no, ParticleAnalysisReport declaratiog at the if boundary")

when you sit on Chief Delphi refreshing every few seconds to read the new quote they have for Valentine's Day on the top of the page, reading aloud to your mother and sister, and then putting it on your facebook in your quotations part of your profile :)
