Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition

Ok, so I know we have one of these every year, and I've decided it's high time this year's began!

Write down the funniest quotes (engineering related or not, yes I've seen the "engineering slogans" thread, this doesn't have to have anything to do with engineering) that your team has had during the season so far! As my team enjoys harassing me, I have some fairly amusing ones

•Sean, please make sure they’re not cutting themselves with the hacksaw
•“Do you have a band-aid?” “No” “Ok, do you have paper towel and duck tape?”
•“I turned in my medical form, now I can cut my finger off”
•“Yes guys, aluminum is sharp”
•“Is that supposed to cut wood?” “Yeah, I guess it doesn’t cut aluminum”

Let's hear what other team's have got!

Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition

Here is a quote from our programmer (me) after testing autonomous modes on a previous robot.

"Autonomous sort of works", "Ok", "I nearly decorated the parking lot with Reggie 3. Autonomous just sort of goes forever." our field is on a second story floor, the robot was headed towards the door, it has a new dent in it .

Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition

Here's some of mine, from the programmers, to the Tetra House incident, to the Titanic Bunnies reinactment when it was midnight and I think we were drunk on water >.>

"A variable is like a BOX!" -Max

(titanic reinacted by bunnies in 30 seconds)
The titanic was the ship of dreams and it was!
I'll jump! No you won't. Yes i will!
ICEBURG DEAD AHEAD!!!! AHHH!!! AHHH!!!! AHH!!!!!!!
this ship cannot sink! I assure you she can!
I HAVE A CHILD!!!
I won't let go jack! *lets go*
Ah! *drops necklace*
the end!


"they be shanken my house yo" -Trent (tetra house incedent)


"We're sorry, the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off due to technical difficulties." - me when I was "discussing" something about the robot...

Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition

Unfortunately our build season hasn't been very amusing. Usually we keep a quote book because so many funny things happen, but we haven't kept one this year.

On the other hand, here's a couple of incidents who may have been funny at the time but not to anyone who wasn't there. =P

*Collin throws foam rubber at Sonya* "DEGRATION!!!"

Sonya: Does that hurt your face?
Anna: You hurt my face!

Also, a couple of my freshmen can fit inside the tetras. That's pretty amusing to watch.

One of my team members said this just now, upon entering the room when other team members were playing country music: "What the heck is this crap?" Pretty much his entire life philosophy in one sentence.

Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition

this isn't from 2005 but it has carried on since it was said last year.

"Is this aluminum or metal?" that was asked when looking for sheets to make a panel out of.

there is also "make me a sand which"
"because gravity hates me" answer to most all of my questions.

Make sure you check out the 2004 page. =) A lot of them still apply to 2005. Our rather strange FIRST family ( ) has no problem supplying funny quotes on a daily basis, its just the webmaster (me) forgets them about 5 minutes after they happen.

"Team Force: Sanity Is Optional"

"I have to leave FIRST so I can go home and service my dog."
--One of our design team, on his responsibility to "wash, walk, and feed" his canine pal.


"I am quitting computers. I am going home to live in a shack in the woods."
--One of our design team, after he logged on to Autodesk to have it subsequently crash for the 15th time in a row.

"Tim, why did our server go down?" *calls ISP* "Um...a raccoon bit through our CAT-5 cable."

--Petey

Re: Amusing Quotes--2005 Edition

"I'm bleeding get me a band aid" "do you have aids" "no?" " don't worry 'bout it then"

"Frigen 12 gauge whatda think"

to the freshmen "Can you grab me the metric cresent wrench."

"It likes that." after anything is dropped

"Good 'nough for govment work"

And being that we only have guys on the team there are many sayings that are too crude to put on a public forum.
