"Quotes" that were said during build season

[Lord_Jeremy]

This was from when the programmers and I were trying to get a stupid Fischer Price motor to work properly:

Anthony: What?!! How is that PWM reading 4049?!!
Marc: I think I forgot to set the parameters for the PrintF. Yep, it's just outputting random values...


And yet another when I commented on Mitchell writing all of his code under the influence of Starburst. It has now become a running joke...

Me: What's that comment in your code... "This code was done with the help of SuGaR" Who's SuGaR, a friend of yours?
Mitchell: No... I was up late last night. I program best under the influence of starburst.
Me: What, starburst? What's that have to do with anything?
Mitchell: The sugar in starburst! I eat starburst for energy!
Me: Oh... I generally don't need caffeine-induced energy...
Mitchell: You idiot! There's no caffeine in starburst! I program best with sugar!

Me: "Yeah, I'm sure we didn't spend fifty-thousand on pizza and kool-aid!"

We have kool-aid every meeting.
