"We don't have a steam roller, so get sweaty and roll around on the carpet." (our carpet had been rolled then folded for several months and had some bad wrinkles).

"Call coach Favre* and get a couple of linemen in here" (during continuing efforts to smooth the carpet with two upperclassmen and our rock wall insert that looked remarkably like blocking drill).

"You have the balls of a rhino."

B, I'll give you an A if you kill M using just this pool noodle. (Followed by discussion of sword swallowing, but with noodles).

Why do you want to set fire to the robot?

No dilly-dallying, no shilly-shallying. Get home before the tornadoes and hail catch up with you.

Stop throwing rivets in each others' faces. And put on your safety glasses!

Using a suction cup on your forehead like that is only a hazard if you actually have a brain. Of if your parents see the hickey.

I've spent the last ten minutes picking up parts and tools, and it still looks like the toolbox exploded and took out a robot in the process.

Make sure the blade is still in backwards. (Instructions to cut polycarbonate with a circular saw).

That's not grilled cheese that's a melt! And provolone? You can't make a proper grilled cheese sandwich with anything other than American cheese. And anyway, American cheese isn't good for anything but grilled cheese sandwiches.

"What WERE they thinking?" (four bolts sticking out well over 1" below the belly pan/skid plate, when everything else points up, and most of those are rivets).

Chill. It's not the end of the world. Not for you, anyway.

(Reading punch list) "What are pex ribs on side panels?"
"That's what Jackson's doing."
"Jackson's putting the pex on... the side panels. Oh."

"Did you see the ballast plates?"
"Yes.""
"Well, they're going to mount right here."
"Oh, I thought they mounted over there." (much too small a location)
"The iron ballast plates?"
"Ye..wait, no, they're aluminum."
"Do you know what ballast is?"
"I'm guessing No."

Shouldn't you drill the hole before you put a bolt through it?


* Yes, our football head coach is a Favre. So is one of my immediate co-workers. It's not that uncommon a name in these parts.
