Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

... all 3 of your oral communications speeches are about robotics
-all about Midwest regional (personal experience speech)
-how to create a CAD drawing (how to speech)
-all about Dean Kamen (inspirational person speech)
... you think about how easy driving would be if your car had swerve drive

I ditto that.

EDIT: Also, you start up Pandora Internet Radio and you start to dance thinking you're at a competition. Then you realize that you aren't and continue dancing anyway since no one is around.

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

[I didn't know where else to put this.]
A few months ago I posted in the 'Quotes' page with a quote from build: 'Why do people gotta have a life outside of robotics?'

Tonight, I became friends on Facebook with a member of another Oregon team with which I went to CMP with this year. Ever eager to see another robotics person's quotes, I looked and beheld: 'Why do people gotta have a life outside of robotics?' He said he saw it on CD

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

You are awake until 2am working on things for your team... in July. And you have work at 8 am.

This is still the best problem ever.

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

When you have been told you need to set up a tent in the machine shop because you spend so much time there.

When you start verbally responding to the CD thread you are reading and the people around you see it as completely normal.
