Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

After watching a news segment about a girl whose phone's lithium ion battery caught fire when she had her phone under her pillow (it was relevant to our safety lesson at a lunch and learn), I said to my co-captain, "I guess she knows when that hotline blings."

(Serious note: This was right after the news story called the incident a "very close call." I do not make light of fire safety.)

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Our electrical head just asked "Why are there two different sizes of 18 gauge wire?"

It turns out that one just had more insulation than the other, but still.

Was yelling to one of the mechanical students and they couldn't hear me. They yelled back:

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

When the CoTS was called a BoM

"Someone has set us up the BoM!"

"Why is everyone talking about explosives with the refs?"

"'Put it in the BoM'
'the Bomb!? I didn't know we were building one'
a mentor then explained what the BoM was
'Oh I'll do that, that job sounds like the BoM'
