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

[CalTran]

When you're a Boy Scout and you go to District Roundtable to get your Eagle Project approved, and you somehow manage to intrigue your reviewer when you mention Robotics in passing...and he asks you more questions about Robotics then your project! XD

You mean you didn't manage to have your Eagle project involve robotics? Sorry, not overdosed yet.

When the Vice Principal comes in and asks the teacher why everyone is working on the assignment except one person (you), and the teacher says, "Oh, that's just Andrew. He's on the robotics team."

When this is the same for EVERY teacher.

On boy scouts related

• When you tell your troop that you won't be able to make a campout or you have to leave a meeting early, and they automatically assume you are going to robotics
• When you ae able to convince your dad to become a robotics merit badge councilor
• When you suggest to your troop that they come over to your robotics team to check out your robot, as an "eductational" experience for them, but mostly so that you get a few more minutes close to your robot
• When you are supposed to be working on Merit Badges, but are on CD instead

You're overdosed on FIRST when you consider your FRC team as your family, and your family as a bunch of people you receive free room and board from.

...when you are having trouble deciding whether to go to a Saturday build day or the Debate State Championship.

When every time you pass a house (or 23) while on your bus stop, you keep thinking about making a thread about how your life is "run by numbers", and no matter how you try to look at numbers, you just see team names.

When you have started associating your newer friends names with numbers.... It's easier to remember...

There is so much wrong with this statement.

[Dragon Princess]

When your Boyfriend is someone you met at a First event because he was a driver for another Robotics team and you were the driver for you team.

When the "offseason" time between May and December is still robotics time for you, but not your team.

Off... season? You aren't making any sense. Stop speaking gibberish.

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.

You can have off days - Christmas and Fourth of July (or Canada Day, as applicable). All other days are robot days.

Since when is Christmas not a robot day? What do you think people put on their wish lists?
