Classic quote- "It's Electronics fault"

M: I milled it to exactly 4 inches. You can hit me if it's off.
(A measures it with calipers, and proceeds to hit M)
M: Ow! (rubs shoulder) What was that for???
A: You're 7 thousandths of an inch off!
M: (snatches the piece) Fine. I'm gonna go rubber-wheel it for 7 seconds.

(as we are about to assemble our chassis)
Lead mentor: Are you kidding me???
M, A, and I: What's wrong??
Lead mentor: This is the wrong piece! We made the wrong piece!!!
A: Uh, isn't that the piece you're looking for? (points to the chassis piece right next to where the one the lead mentor picked up was)
Lead mentor: Shut up! Can't you hear I'm blind?

- I'm sorry; in *this* shop, we obey the laws of physics.
