Mentor (about the robot arm) : "That's dope!"

Alex: *face-palm* "you did not just say that"

[Lokhagos]

"They've caught the plague"
and
"I'm a real boy now!"

[kgzak]

student brings in our testing box (box where we have cRIO, motor controllers, etc. in)
student: I feel like I am carrying a bomb.
Opens box.
mentor (never saw the inside of the box): Even now that you opened it, it still looks like a bomb.
me: Try going through an airport with that.

Our team had the same idea, except it was our head mentor who came up with it.

Student: Lets name our stripper Maria!
Another Student: But isn't that the name of our bimbo?
Me: It's called a Bimba
Both Students: Can't Maria be a stripper and a bimbo?
Me: Bimba.

Mr. Young: What time is it?
Jessie: 4:22.
Me: It was 4:22 15 Minutes ago!?!?!
Jessie: Wait that clock is broken.
Mr. Young: Well what time is it?
Me: 4:22.

Careful that swiss cheese will cut you!

[Karibou]

Sign in the shop: "DO NOT FEED THE ROBOT"

"What are you doing?"
"The alan wrench broke off and now it's stuck in the bolt"
"HOW DID YOU DO THAT!?"

In my four years, I have never seen anyone break an alan wrench. I'm still confused.

What are you guys doing? Back to work!

We are working!

There are four of you standing around nothing...

We're... Uh... Helping program... Yeah! Cause, ya know, it takes four students one of whom is a programmer to program a robot.

[G33K]

Jake: "Why is there an octagonal hole in this tubing?"
Connor: "...to fit the hex shaft...?


oh."

The mentor who is "overseeing" programming doesn't even know what compiling really means so he'll actually not see that it's actually important. Crazy part is: HE'S SUPPOSED TO KNOW IT!
