Quotes that won't catch on
 

This is the place to put quotes JUST FOR LAUGHS. Don't take them seriously. Just post any quote that you think might be funny. They don't even have to make sense.

I'll make up more later, but I thought I might post one for now.

Being GP doesn't mean being PG.

I don't want to be a well rounded individual, I want to be an engineer-A professor at a camp I was at said that was his motto during his undergrad years

Re: Quotes that won't catch on
 

That is a professor I can relate to. I'm an engineering student in a cultural anthropology class. I'm not a happy camper. Just made me think of another quote that won't catch on.

Nothing quite as a dull as a book with big words and no math.

Re: Quotes that won't catch on
 

Just had to post this one.

"Definition: 'Love' is making a shot to the knees of a target 120 kilometers away using an Aratech sniper rifle with a tri-light scope. Statement: This definition, I am told, is subject to interpretation. Obviously, love is a matter of odds. Not many meatbags could make such a shot, and fewer would derive love from it. Yet for me, love is knowing your target, putting them in your targeting reticle, and together, achieving a singular purpose, against statistically long odds." - HK47 in KOTOR

If you knew my team's drive team motto, you'd know why it wouldn't catch on...

In postable terms, it's "Don't screw up."

It's the motto of our coach's F1 team, and it just stuck during one of our regionals amid a flurry of really stupid mistakes (forgetting to turn the robot on during a practice match? Check!). Surprisingly, it did its job and our new drive team has really sharpened up. It's almost a mentality now that we carry to competition.
