"Oh, wow the code wasn't even in the project."
Me on NetBeans debugging code, wondering why it wasn't working when it turns out if your .java isn't in the project it doesn't change any code in the project.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

One of our mentors to one of the other students: "It looks like you lost an electron today!"
(When an electron is lost/gained the charge becomes positive/negative.)

Mentor: "What are you guys doing?"
Student 1: "We're building robots!"
Student 2 to Student 1: "It looks like you're eating cookies."

A: "In everything you do there's a right way, a wrong way, and the A-Team way which is the wrong way but faster."
B: "Actually, the A-Team way works pretty well for prototyping.."
A: "Touche!"

"My kingdom for the doodlebob!"

"That is a terrible idea.. let's do it!"

A: "I think we should be able to hang tubes on the bottom pegs."
B: "I think if you're hanging tubes on the bottom you're doin it wrong."
