Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Me: "Who plugged the lights into a Victor?" <----Day before filming release video

Mentor: "Is the spring tensioned?"
Loud smash accompanied with ball smashing into the driver station glass
Student: "Um... no"

Student 1: "Ok don't shoot"
Student 2: "I think he said shoot"
Student 3: "FIRING!"
Student 1: "Ow! my nose is bleeding!"

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

"Is there anything that we can do?"
"Yeah, sure. Probably lots."
"What?"
"Uh... oh well i guess you can clean up that electrical junk. You see that drawer over there?"
"...we did that already."
"Do it again."

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Some kind of discussion was taking place about windows (the kind on buildings), slightly paraphrased:

Me: Maybe we can have IT fix it. It's broken, they fix stuff right?
M: *chuckle*
Me: I mean, they support Windows, right?
M: *Bigger chuckle*
