You know you're addicted to FIRST when...

[planetbrilliant]

... when your passcode to your phone is your team number

[NHoffmann]

You buy gamepiece totes from AndyMark to take stuff to college... And gamepiece noodles just because.

[GeeTwo]

It's July, and in your SUV, you have ten pool noodles, half a dozen new AM wheels, a brand new cRIO, PDP, VRM and talon breakouts. There's also blue and red burlap, a riveter, four boxes of rivets, a velcro strip that's going to be used as a tennis ball conveyor belt, two 8' lengths of one-by ripped to five inches wide, and a few other robotic odds and ends. You may also have about two cubic feet of pecan and 20' length of open cell foam, but those are separate stories.

Oh, yeah - and a long-sleeve denim shirt and two pairs of safety glasses.

You might be addicted to FIRST when Google keeps suggesting you to set your work location to where you have team meetings.

[RoboMo786]

You're more concerned about getting blood on the robot than the fact that you just got hurt.

You see the sunset and the sunrise in the same build session

I go right to the shop from work on build nights, and a few days ago my phone (Droid Turbo), which automatically gives ETAs to/from home/work at the beginning and end of the day, gave me the ETA to "Home"...except it was routing me to the shop.

... you pull out the new radio and fangirl over the small size
... you spend more time with your team than your friends
... you start coming up with ideas of what to say for this thread

I knew I couldn't be the only one!

you spam refresh here in hope to see 118's robot reveal come up

[Domo_Arigato]

When You join Chief Delphi and you try to read every post.

[The Sofa]

. . . when you have nightmares of your division leader yelling that you forgot to save the banner design in Photoshop.

[3175leheh]

When someone says "Allen" and you think of the wrench set.

[MechEng83]

You walk into a hardware store and reflex attempt to put on safety glasses...

... or Sam's Club ... or Kroger ... or any building, really.
