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

...when you make this year's robot better with mods you had before compettition to prove a point to engineers who didin't listen to you.

...when you're working on a final exam for a college class on 3DsMax offered to you as a highschool student through robotics. (Exam is like.... a week or two. Tough stuff.. Well not that hard. Just big.)

[Scott Shaw 237]

-When you're playing a computer game (MOHAA) and the ip of the server for the game reminds you of team numbers.

-When you've posted about 5 different times on this thread.

...when no matter where you are, what you see, what you do, depending if you do it on purpose, or just by accident, there's always something out there that reminds you of FIRST.

...when you keep a FIRST tub in your trunk - just in case.

(When my mother saw that in my trunk and asked about it and I answered,"You know, just in case", she replied, "Just in case of what? You are driving down the street and you see a random robot competition?! )

[AlbertW]

When your AP registration ID starts with 1075, and you beg your dean to let you look through the pile for one that begins with 1072

[Kyle]

when you go to the Phillys and Giants game with another person from ur team and do the MOEcheer about 4 times just because there was a chance another FIRSTer could have been there,

I didn't count myself in any of the stats..

[Amanda Morrison]

... when you check this thread because you see that Brandon Martus replied and wonder if it's something important or insightful.

... when you check CD at 4 am - right before you go to bed, and then check it again at 8 am - just in case there are new threads.

Maybe that just makes me a CD geek.

[Kiwi_queen]

...when you have to miss a few days of checking up on CD and go through all the classic withdrawal systems

.....when no matter who you're speaking with, something you say has (either by accident or on purpose) something to do with FIRST or fellow FIRSTers.

....when you dislike spring break 'cuz it keeps you away from CD and leaves you tempted to get back to post more random comments.

[Hailfire]

...when you finally find something else that interests you besides FIRST. Ex. Lots and lots of Computer Games
