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

[JanineF]

I only made it through the first three pages, so I may be repeating, but some things just need to be said.

-You no longer talk about a BAC (Blood Alchohol Content) but instead your BCC (Blood Caffeine Content)

-You have dumped a non-FIRSTer because they just did not understand

-The robot can be described as sexy

-You have a friend to whom you tried to point out an attractive individual and instead they looked at a gear ratio in that attractive individuals vicinity

-You start calling your head engineer "Dad" on accident

-You have a designated "nap area" in your machine shop

-You add to this list instead of researching for a history paper (not that I know this from VERY RECENT experience ::cough:: )

-You understand everything said on this forum

-You can look at a set of numbers and understand why they are funny

-As soon as someone mentions something which is even remotely related to robotics you are there

-People tried to vote you "Most Robotics Oriented" in your high school yearbook

-You follow my quote that "FIRST is not a hobby, it is a lifestyle!"

-After dumping that non-FIRSTer...you cannot remember ever dating anyone who was not from FIRST

-Online you have added T#(team number) to the end of A/S/L/P (age/sex/location/picture) just in case
