Re: You know you're addicted to FIRST when...

...when you're at the security checkpoint at Newark Airport on the way to nationals and the metal detector goes BANANAS because you've got THE WRENCH THAT FITS, two allen wrenches, 1/8th inch keystock, locknuts, and replacements for the only three metric bolts on your robot, all in your pocket.

...when a girl on your team holds up the line for the security checkpoint at the Atlanta airport because she has to take the 100 some-odd buttons off that have been periodically pinned to her jeans throughout the course of the weekend.

...when your crate is over the weight limit and you're frustrated because you think "gee why don't we just drill holes in it", and then realize that you can't.
