Guy in green polo: My hand's stuck. My hand's stuck! I can't let go!

[Robot stops several feet above the ground and crashes to the ground]

Kid in blue polo: The levitation circuit works!

Guy in green polo: Really?!?! While I had my hand stuck in it?

Kid in blue polo: I needed to know if I could levitate a human for my magic act. Now stick your hand back in there. I need to see if it can lift both you and me.

[Jim Wilks]

Student: "We've got a bit of a problem with this robot."
Mentor: "Ah ha! I see the problem right here"
Student " That's not really the problem"
