CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #412

[Travis Hoffman]

Well, clearly this prototype is substandard for our needs. C'mon Martha, we better go back home and iterate some more.

...

[Taylor]

I'm glad they relaxed the motor rules. You won't believe what we found at the junkyard! We just need to get him some black pants to show polarity.

[EricH]

Student in background: "You know, when we suggested that you bring us one of 1114's students, we meant someone who could actually talk to us about their robot!"

Last time I checked, you couldn't get one of those legally within 6 weeks. I'm not even going to let you say it was a COTs part.

[Al Skierkiewicz]

OK, You convinced me, he is a pre-college student, he fits in the 120 lb weight limit, I might even go with the interpretation of the COTS definition that any team can obtain one from more than one source. Where I am drawing the line at is the legal power used on the robot, and more importantly hazardous materials. Drool aside, there are other things that can leave residue on the field...
[R08]
Robot parts shall not be made from hazardous materials, be unsafe, cause an unsafe condition, or interfere with the operation of other Robots.
Examples of items that will violate this rule include (but are not limited to):
A. Shields, curtains, or any other devices or materials designed or used to obstruct or limit the vision of any drivers and/or coaches and/or interfere with their ability to safely control their Robot

Besides, are you sure you can remove a game piece from him after the match is over?

(And you thought inspection was easy?!?!?)

[npoe] You only score a person's last entry, right, Billfred? 'Cause my previous one was awkwardly worded. [/npoe]

Guy with the lacrosse stuff: "Wait, I thought that since the pre-freshman's mom nixed the use-her-baby idea, we were going to go with my catapult. So why's he here?"

Mentor with the baby: "We made a poll on Chief Delphi, and the results were overwhelming. You both got outvoted."

[npoe] Wouldn't it be weird if that actually happened? [/npoe]

[obviously not an entry]

You are correct.

[J.Warsoff]

As long as he doesn't poop, we'll be fine guys.

[JaneYoung]

It's great to bounce ideas off of each other, no matter how big or how small. You just may net a couple of good ones.

[Jim Wilks]

Proud parent with baby: "This is how we get an early start with future team members -- introduce them to robotics at a very early age."

Guy with mop: "Why do I have to clean up after every kid they bring in here who has an accident?"

Guy with tools: "When are those guys gonna stop fooling around with photo op's and let me get back to work on this robot?"

[rachelholladay]

He doesn't play Baby Einstein, he's a baby who plays on Einstein.

[Wayne Doenges]

This gives a whole new meaning to dribbling

[DonRotolo]

This gives a whole new meaning to "Bouncing Baby Boy"...

[nitneylion452]

The team fiercely debated the idea that this baby was a COTS item.

[PAR_WIG1350]

Even if you did get him at an ARA junkyard, how on earth did you get them to put windshield wiper, door, seat, or window motor on the receipt?
