You injure yourself on the robot and the first thing you say is "I'm ok how's the robot?"

When your biggest gripe with your high school's internet firewall is that is bans Chief Delphi and Blue Alliance but not Twitter.

-When you should be doing schoolwork and are watching TBA. Then realizing some events ended today on Sunday, and watched some more (when I should still have been working on homework)

-When you've been wondering for a while if a mecanum drive is possible in Kerbal Space Program

You need to get your IT department on your mentor list. I work for IT in our school corporation and you can believe that CD and TBA are unblocked

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

When you have nothing to do, so you CAD up some sunglasses to 3D Print.

When you take extremely careful scouting data when you're just watching the feed.

When you're bored, and you spend your time on Amazon, looking for robot parts so you can build again.

When Championships just ended the week before, and you take apart as many electronics, just to make something new.
