Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Our bot was overweight when we weighed it (because we forgot to take out the battery) and someone said "We should shave the nuts!".

Others:
"In theory the code should work."
"When button 1 is pressed start givingBirth."
"Our robot must be a seahorse, it's a he and it gives birth."
"My nuts dropped, can you grab them for me?"

More if I can remember them.

"This fork's going to give us some trouble."
"Does that mean you're forked?"
"Fork you too."
"In honor of [mentor], we're naming this variable 'forked'."
"Is it spelled F-O-U-R-K-E-D? ... Oh god, it is now. I can tell by the look on his face."
(for the next 10 mins)
"I just misspelled fourked."

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

2 from today.

1.
our electrical lead has been wiring for the last 2-3 hours
Student: this pwm cable came out.
Mentor: now is not a good time.
Electrical lead: Tomorrow you will be hung from the highest peg!!!, we get bonus points for that.
laughter followed for the next 5 minutes

2.
we place our robot on the scale after finally wiring everything up
Mentor: 121.6
students: wait, that cant be right!!!?!!!
Me: Um, we didn't put the lexan cover on yet.
students: uh oh.
*place lexan cover on robot*
Mentor: 123.2
students: OH NO WE'RE 3.2 POUNDS OVER WEIGHT!!!

I'm glad our first event is bag and tag, or this late night would be even later...

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

"Accidental engineering" popped up a few times.
Also, from a conversation about some random dangerous thing which I do not recall
Team member: "Ooh, can I do that too"
Alumn/Mentor: "No, it's stupid and dangerous"
Team Member: "Then why can you?"
Alumn/Mentor: "Because I'm a mentor!"
