"Quotes" that were said during build season

[athtfishtebomb]

As i get out of the car " Sean I think robotics is making all of us ( the team) go a little bit insane"
Sean " Probably..but we were never completely sane to begin with"

[Eric Scheuing]

Picking up a spray painted bumper:

Mr. Mo: "This is so pimped out."

[BotBattler]

My Mentor, James Moran: "Calc has its place and Trig has its place, but the two should never mix!"

Me: "You know what?"

James: "What?"

Me: "We're such freaking nerds. I can't believe we're talking about math..."

James: "At 7 A.M.!"

Me: "On a Sunday!"

Coach: "It would probably be a good idea to run the pneumatic tube underneath the bar so it is easier to access..then again.. it would look a lot sexier if you ran it through the bar."

after WD-40ing our (EXTREMELY) noisy cart:
David: You see, the noisy wheels were a safety feature. They alerted people to dive for cover. LOOK OUT STEVE!
*WHAM* (as Steve crashes the cart into a door frame again)

Scott (mentor): Fernando would be our comic relief, except comic relief implies that it's not constant.
*Fernando is running around in a jumpsuit like a penguin while making his wookie sound*

I overhear Steve calling our team leader to find out when the robot will arrive at the mini tournament: "What do you mean the wheels fell off again." I never actually found out what this was...

"Good news, we now have an external unsigned volatile long long"
"External ?! It's not in Pants.h?"
"There is nothing in pants.h anymore"

yes, we did have a pants.h file

"Jake, your the most useless usefull person on the team"-Bradley Smith
"Don't ride the robot (Jake)"-Sam, Mentor
"Jake, stop thinking about marketing for a minute and hand me that wrench"-Keaton
"I think we should add a flower pot to the front of our robot, that way when we win we can as a gesture of kindness give them it as a souveniur" -Ari

[jburianek]

A student when learning the robot is overweight:
"Can we just cut off the diamonds and make it flat" (referencing our diamond plate)

[jaker29902]

"Screw the research, lets just do it"

"Wheres the pizza?"

Me as the robot is attempting to drive itself off the table and smash into the floor: "JEFF FLIP THE FREAKING KILL SWITCH!"

Jeff: "What? what switch?"

Me: "hold down the programming button!!!"

Jeff: "Where is it?"

Me: "Unplug the battery for the love of God!!!"

Jeff: "How!?!?"

Someone eventually came and uplugged it but not before it tored up one of the tires.

"Just solder it" which has become the first response to any problem involving connecting two pieces of metal together

Nerdy pick up line:
Student 1: Hey, let's make fetuses!
Student 2: That is so nerdy!
Student 1: Yeah so?
Student 2: Are you trying to suggest something?
Student 1: No, not really!

Yo mama is like autonomous mode; she only lasts 15 seconds.

"i can smell your feet from here"

Parts of an IM conversation between a team member and another team member's brother:

HMM...
What's HMM stand for?
Homo man monkey

...

We <3 you!
What's <3?
It's less than 3, fool!
???

He's not very bright

[bduddy]

Me- "Our build days mostly consist of trying to get (and keep!) the best chair."

"Flippo, will autonomous work?"
"Of course it will. The robot will do exactly what the code tells it to."
"Will it put a tube on the rack?"
"I never said that!"
