"Are you sure you want to try the suicidal ramming mode autonomous? I haven't tested it yet." -2004 at Nats, we proceeded to ram the ramp at full speed and bend a caster that took 30 minutes to hammer back into place

"Of course the camera lens is off."

"Who put Loctite on this?"

"Ouch!"
"Are you okay?"
"Of course not! Didn't you hear me?"

"your sure this is safe right?"

Re: Famous Last Words
 

"Coarse I wired it correctly"
"Darn, dropped the screw driver in the disposal. Hey Hun, could you hit the light?"
"Hey lets test the new programming!"

The robot is off, right.

Don't worry I'll caught you.

(after power goes out) Dang it I didnt save 4 hours of work.

Re: Famous Last Words
 

"yeah, it[the robot]'s off."

"OF COURSE i tested the autonomous!"

[note: NJ regional practice rounds....we took the middle position and slammed another team's robot straight into the corner goal during autonomous, disabling their robot, delaying the schedule while field crew had to remount the sensor.]

Re: Famous Last Words
 

"It wasn't me." (after I had plugged in an IR sensor wrong back in 2004, and officially burnt it out).

edit: oops, that one is taken, I'll have to try another one

"NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!" and I go insane. (after last year, our robot almost capped center in autonomous)

under breath: **** (after any bad news that may take a long while to fix to good. Pick any four letter word at random)

Re: Famous Last Words
 

Yeah it works. Well, at least, it should work. I programmed/built/designed it to work. It works.
