Sorry, but it was so unbelievable that I forgot (blocked out?) the circumstances.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

A few things from the preseason/last season in honor of kickoff


Me: *runs into the nest* MR RIKER THEYRE USING A CHOPSAW TO MAKE A HALL PASS AND I DONT KNOW WHY
Mr Riker: *look of fear*
Me: its the freshmen
Me: *runs into build room* Why are we using the chopsaw???
McGinty: This was my idea
Me: so what you’re saying is that you’re less responsible than cocky 14 year old boys surrounded by dangerous tools?

Mechanical lead, at 10 pm, standing on top of a filing cabinet surrounded by falling objects: I derped

our team is a $@#$@#$@#$@# show like the michigan ohio state game

"you can't stand still...I feel like you were once a mountain goat"

"free stuff from the part of kits"

"my middle finger is going to be so worn out by the end of a season with you"

"woodie flowers and his derpy little ponytail"

"you're doing ok!...ish"

"she has teeth!!"
"...why is that surprising?"
"have you seen this video????"

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Upon recieving a 1400 psi gauge in our bag from Automation Direct our head mentor said,

"With that sort of pressure we can just bounce over the defenses!"

Team mom: It says you can't go over the low bar...

Mentor: Yeah, but it doesn't say anything about the Porticullis!"

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

The 5 foot 6 student said something along the lines of...
"Some of the defenses could be problematic for line of sight, for you guys at least."
