Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

"There are NO Saw Blades on the robot!" (Said at competition to inspector. Everything we bought was put on the BOM by accident, not just things on the robot, including our new saw blades...)

"That's MY Squid Hat!"

"Why won't the Pi work?" (we used a Raspberry Pi on the Robot)
"Because you haven't threatened to eat it yet!"

"Sort of like a dementor princess?" (looong story)

"So my threaded code is working fine. Its just a bit too stringy"

"Can't we just extract the caffeine from the soda?"

"Well we released the magic smoke on that sensor..."

"How does it shoot so accurately?"
"Sugar rush from that Pi its eating!"

"Hmmm Fried Jaguar, crispy just how I like it."

"Laying out this control board is a game of 4-Dimensional Tetris!" (We had to add a vertical board to fit everything, then where things mounted kept changing over time, so the board size/shape had to keep changing.)

"Well I think it was shorting out. It was so hot, I wanted to make a smore over the wire!"

"Hmm, I love the smell of Flux in the Afternoon"

A "Hey pass me the flux."
B "why?"
A "So I can coat this Capacitor"
C "Ok Doc Brown"

"Joe and I are in Sonic Screwdrivers Autonomous!"

"After Build Season I will teach you all the programmers to Hack, for now lets just get this robot auto-aiming!"
