Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

My rookie and I are like sisters, so when somebody messes with her she says this in reference to me.
"Don't make me sick my lesbian on you!"
Or
"Don't make me call my lesbian over here"

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Yay! Post #3574 on this thread!!!

So, I came back to the shop after having to miss a lot due to circumstances beyond my control (homework. Sigh), and saw on the whiteboard devoted to the programmers, someone had written "programmers = cool whip (fluffy)". I asked around and nobody knew who had written it or what it meant... [insert Twilight Zone theme music here]

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Jokingly written while editing our scouting sheet:

Is the robot offensive, defensive, or defective?

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Mentor: You guys programmed a really good autonomous, 1671 even commented about it on Chief Delphi, on the CVR thread.
J: Is it really that good? It's just a bunch of while loops!
A: Accept your praise!

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Student: "When in doubt, dead blow."

Student: "We haven't caused any trouble!"
Mentor: "I quote 'WE NEED TO GET ALL OF THE METAL SHAVINGS OUT OF THE ELECTRONICS BOARD BEFORE THE ELECTRICAL TEAM COMES BACK!!!!!'"
Student: *Silence*

Freshman: "Why is Wasay so emotionless and scary?"
Mechanical Lead: "Because his parents were killed by a clown, and then he became Batman."
Me, having just heard: "Then I realized I didn't have Morgan Freeman to build me cool stuff, so I joined a FIRST team."

Student: 'I figured out the game after the water challenge, the AIR challenge! This is how it's going to be introduced: "Air challenge is played on a 27 by 54 foot ETERNAL ABYSS"'

My personal favorite-
New member: "Ummm.. I cut this piece too short... We don't happen to have like a channel stretcher, do we?"

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Not as much a quote as it is a funny situation.
Student 1 and Student 2 decided that they wanted to investigate what happened to a wireless bridge that we had burned out because we accidentally reversed the polarity of a router.

1: "You know what? I really wanna see what happened to that burnt out router."
2: "Alright, let's open it up."

So, they open it up and decide to plug it in and see if anything visual happens. Of course nothing happens at all, so student 2 suggests they grab an IR temperature reader.

2: "So, the baseline is anywhere from 70-80 degrees."

student 1 turns on the power to the router and they both start reading out temperatures.

2:"Not the cpu and that chip, so let's start checking the capacitors."
1:"Well, those are at about 90. See of the CPU changed at all."
2:"Nope, they didn't change much."

at this time, student two passes the temperature reader over a large capacitor, and the reader reads out 130 degrees. Student 1 bursts out laughing.

1:"Well, I think we found the problem!"

TL;DR Students start laughing their heads off when trying to diagnose a router when a capacitor reads out 130 degrees. Also, don't kill routers. It's a bad idea
