Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Our school-appointed advisor was trying to understand the game, and mostly the whole 'swingy-swishy', as he called it, part of the rack.

"Wait, so this thing's gonna react like Jell-O!"

at this point, Big Mike and I look at each other, and I mouth "Jell-O Game!" and burst out laughing.


[edit]

also, we were cutting a piece of our frame, and somehow there was a shortage of safety goggles.

"just cover your hands with your eyes!....er....uhm....scratch that, flip it around, k, we got it.'

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

From senior Electronics leader to noobie:
"Yea thats a great idea. If this board bursts into flames, lets poor mountain dew on the electrical fire."

"Hm.... no way around that. Lets just hope it doesnt explode."

"Wait, so putting 12v strait through an aligator clip was a bad idea?"

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Ken: "Why are you wearing BOTH tubes?"
Carmichael: "Because 1 is NOT a life saving device, so 2 would work"

Ken: "I dont really know how to do it, i just know enough to fake it."

Team Member: "How long has that battery been charging ken?"
Ken: "Only since I put it on there (running to battery) Last night....."

Ken: "Hold down the Prog. Button"
Me: "ok, its solid"
Ken: "Ok, im going to download, im glad these have been fixed so you dont have to retry over and over"
--Computer-- Failed to Download
Ken: "...Maybe there are still a few problems"

Ken: "And the company name is Cross The Road Electronics"
Jaime: "I dont get it...."
Ken: "Copioli brother?..."

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Me: (Reading the label on tube) "It Says 'Warning: This Is Not A Lifesaving Device.' So does that mean if there's a fire, it won't save me?"

Nick: "Yeah it will. You just have to put it on your face like this"

Dick: "Something has to be wrong... this is WAY too easy!" In reference to picking up and depositing the tubes. I don't get it either...

Dick: "I think it requires a 5mm hex."
Me: "METRIC?? Since when do we use metric parts on our robot?!" I didn't know the fasteners for 8020 were metric...
