Backstory: Our school does Candygrams around Valentines Day as a fundraiser for various clubs (Not Robotics, sadly). Said Candygrams are traditionally delivered to their recipients by a horde of the manliest men in school, all wearing bright pink tutus, leggings and the occasional set of fairy wings, all singing various songs by Justin Beiber. Naturally, one of our captains sent a Candygram to another captain and this is what transpired when they met in the hall before our meeting.

Captain 1: So did you get a candygram today?
Captain 2: Oh, just one. I can't quite remember who it was from though...
Captain 1: Beats me.
Captain 2: Oh that right! I remember now!
Captain 1: Who was it?
Captain 2: You! (He then proceeds to spout a very creative string of curses and death threats that I am obliged not to replicate on these forums.)

Alvaro: Does somebody have a flash drive? We need nine gigabytes.
Dadream: Here! (Hands over a ridiculously old flash drive)
Alvaro: No! We are not using this. How much storage does it even have?
Dadream: It has gigabytes.
Me: (After trying it) You lied, Dadream; this does not have gigabytes, it has one gigabyte.

You can't fax money

When milling parts...


"I LOVE THIS MILL!!!"


About 30 seconds later, when we are trying to get the x location to 1.1875 and it keeps flipping to 1.1188...

"@#$%^ YOU MILL!!"


We finally determined that the student was in a love hate relationship with the mill.
