Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

I was assigned by the head mentor of our team to make an inventory list of all the t-handle allen wrenches so that we could keep track of whether we were missing any. I had an armful of close to 20 of them and, as I passed by the head mentor, I said, "You can' t-handle me!"

It was one of the rare moments in which he was speechless.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

"It will work, trust me."

"What could possibly go wrong?" - Famous Last Words

As head of electronics, "I always have zip-ties on me."

"This, this is dangerous."

"The robot isn't working!"
"Did you try turning it off and on?"

"Safety FIRST!!!!"
*everybody simultaneously puts on safety glasses

Whenever one of our mentors leave because he has to attend to his kids:
"Guys I have to go my kids are [insert child events here]."
"What did I tell you about having a family? We are your family!"
