Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

After I made a boo-boo by letting a freshman touch the controls:
Me: "We had a minor mishap in which the code tried to put the arm in an impossible position..." (yes, I do talk like that sometimes)
Mentor: "And?"
Me: "the motors kept driving and..."
Mentor: "What?"
Me: "I blew out the elbow." (I turn around and book it back to my corner)

"I dub thee 'Gear Muncher'" - after ripping teeth off the shoulder gear for the 50th time...

Playing with a new sensor:
"Why is this chip getting so hot?" - I had reversed the connections, putting 5v on the signal pin and grounding the 5v pin. Thankfully it still works.

"Think of all the poor turkeys in wheelchairs!" - we cook turkey legs at our local Renaissance Festival and the volume is crazy. That is a good point...
