"So, because we have a problem, we don't have a problem"

(CAD made it look like there was not enough room for a chain tensioner, but because there was slack in the chain, there is, indeed, enough room.)

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

So I don't know how many people on my team caught it (after a certain point, everything anyone says makes as much sense as gas station sushi) but I accidentally started calling my safety glasses "safty galasses" and had to remind myself not to refer to them as that at an actual competition.

Other highlights include:
"Perry did it!", even though Perry was rarely there, let alone actually screwing stuff up.

"All praise the demon cross!!!" said in reference to the electromagnet in the shape of a cross that someone (it's still a mystery) hung from the ceiling.

"Who's running the Facebook!?!" We still don't know who is successfully running our Facebook. It sent my mother an event invite to our parent meeting and we have no idea who is running it. We've decided it's the demon from the cross XD.

Oh, there you are, Perry!

Our Perry joke started after he walked around in a Perry the Platypus hoodie and made a little girl cry. We apologized to the sweet thing, as well as her mother who thankfully thought it was funny as we did, but we still make fun of him for that.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

From our senior member last year
"Duck tape doesn't fix everything : ( , but it helps"

He wrote that on a Plexiglas sheet that broke on our robot during our very first regional, we have that sheet hanged up on our wall.

P1: do we want to do it fast or do we want to do it right?
P2: (mentor A) is in charge, so we'll do it fast, and then do it over four times

"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"
