I like the fanfare option.

at our mixer with our brother school last weekend they played the cotton-eyed joe... I was all like "oh no, they did NOT just do that"

When you are the official, team-designated Chief Delphi Analyzer. And there is always someone wanting you to look for something on CD.

You dig this:

>public class FooBar extends SimpleRobotNeed{
> public FooBar(){
> boolean foo, bar;
> bar = initBar(bar);
> foo = initFoo(foo);
> if(foo){
> this.get(foo);
> }else if (bar){
> this.goto(bar);
> this.get(drink, bar);
> }
> }
>}

I can't help looking at the new center piece my wife put on the dinning room table and think to myself, "non-functional decoration"

The REST of your tabs tell the REAL story of overdose! 2 team references (one TBA, and your own team site), 2 programming language references, CD (open to this thread), and 3 Wikipedia pages relating to robotics, specifically motion (and judging by what they are, you've been reading some of Ether's posts lately, and are doing further research). Do I detect some mecanum programming going on?


(And I think I've OD'd too--being able to tell all that from just the tab titles)

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...
 

(un)Fortunately I'm not working on mecanum code, depends on your point of view. Right now I'm actually looking into inverse kinematics for an arm with N joints and movement constraints. (It's not technically FRC specific, but could be adapted) I haven't really gotten that far yet, but it's still interesting to read the papers that have been written on it.

When you approach a crosswalk, and it's a red light for the cars, and as they approach the white line, you say "Drivers behind the line!" and when the light turns green, you make the sound you hear at the end of auton.

... When you're at the grocery store with your little cousin, and he starts shuffling sideways. When you ask him what he's doing, he enthusiastically replies: "I'm a mecanum drive!"

He even pronounced it correctly. I've trained him well.

........When you spend the entire schoolday on CD and you miss 3 tests, have no idea what the other people in class are talking about and you suddenly end up with 10 different assignments to do that night....

.....and when you don't do the said assignments because you're browsing through every page on this thread.....

Wow. That was the fastest file transfer I've ever seen on pc.

Anybody want to go smell the blue nitrile tread?

I love big hard drives.

When CD isn't even in your bookmarks tab. I don't know how people can't so obsessed with robotics.
