You know you've been in the shop too long this weekend if:

[The Beast]

When zip ties are your best friend.

When any hint of smoke is near you, you think the robot is burning.

When You tear poof balls for amusement.

When team members, after long days of frustration, sing in unison at the Bohemian Rhapsody.

When every blink of the eye is a blessing

When half your food consists of metal shavings

When teammates chug soda from a funnel and hose

When tally marks are on the board counting the amount of dremel blades and drill bits broken.

When you realize that 98% of your body is composed of soda.

When you find that rolling down the halls of an empty school in a creeper, brings great joy.

When a team member puts the robot hopper ramp on his head and informs us that he is ready to invade Africa.

When random weapons (chinese stars) are created from the metal that is supposed to be used for the robot.

When one robotics team member jumps on a table and acts like a gorilla.
