The main ones.

"$@#$@#$@#$@#$@#$@# MARIA!"
"Maria what are you doing?!"

The oh so famous one.

"CANT STOP! CANT STOP! CANT STOP!" - This was when we were testing our remotoe control with the robot. It was going forward and then next thing you know the robot wouldnt stop. SO our mentor started to yell and the robot ramned into last years field rack.

"David stop!"-Everyone
"DUGADUGADUGA" -Mentor Mr. Meagher
"KISS- Keep It Simple Stupid" -Mentor Mr. Sotir
"Learn from last years mistakes, dont make them again!"

Thats about it for now. There will be more from my team haha.

[Nin_estarSaerah]

"no, we can't put bunk beds in the shop. I don't want any babies named after me."- LB, our mentor.

[Cow Bell Solo]

The most that everyone uses (that is about me) is

NO!!! Stolte NO!!!!

after we had a mushroom cloud of blue smoke out of the electronics

[hoorayforpink]

"I'm hungry, lets eat something---later"

thats all i got

[Sqwigy]

"Four-bar lift. . . . friend or foe?!"

Well that's it for now. . . to be continued!

[Steven S]

oh here are a bunch sadly all mine:

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE AREN'T ANY MORE COOKIES!?!"

"Yes, basing this off my inventor model, the floaty arms go right....here"

"Alright who's genius idea was it to cut the ends off the battery charger wires without labeling them?"
(yeah i don't know what they were thinkin.......)

[danshaffer]

Ok, so first we're going to do some WAD, then some CAD, then some different CAD, then some AAD and then we'll have a robot...
(Whiteboard, cardboard, computer, aluminum)

Grease, blood and cookies... it must be build season.

That's almost unnecessary simplicity.

[Team 1967]

"Forklift scooper thingy!"

"You're allowed to be twice as big as the ball."

"Their word is not Gospel- we learned it the hard way"

"It's ok if we fail."

"...means robot goes crunch."

"Dude?! Is it even possible for a robotics mentor to NOT know how to set up his own voicemail system?!"

[Joe G.]

Me: *returns from shop carrying 2 pieces of 80/20 extrusion about 5 feet long, just cut with a hacksaw*
"The 1x1's for the arm are cut"

P2: (from across the room) "they're uneven" (I have a reputation for being sloppy)

Me: *puts them down, lines them up. They are different by about 1/16th of an inch* "No they aren't"

P2: *looks at end* What's this look like?

Me: A 32nd of an inch?

P3: We'll fix it in programming

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"DON"T LET JOE NEAR THE EPOXY!!!!" (I build rockets with epoxy+fiberglass as the primary fastening material, and have a tendancy to...overuse it for robotics.)

[mormannoob]

me: whats that noise

marcus:its either a vaccum or a compressor

so if true = "1" and false = "!true"
then in theroy false can = "peanut butter"
which may also mean true might equal jelly

[Akash Rastogi]

"Without robotics, kids like us are left alone and afraid!" lol Kraemer (Drive Train)

Our school was scared of snow tonight and decided to cancel all after school activities (hence the previous quote) . They told us we can't come in. Normally, if this was later on in build, we wouldn't listen but we all decided to play it safe for once.(hence the next quote)

"MORT is not a f*****g afterschool activity!!! We simply can't be canceled! Its more like a ...'hey Mr. Principal man, we're staying here for 12 hours if you don't mind. Oh and don't worry, we'll sleep in the gym'... " -Tanvir (End effector)

lmao..always more to come

[Andrew Bates]

P1 "This is hard"
P2 "That's why they call it robotics"
P3 "Wait? it's called robotics cause we build robots right?"
P2 "No"

[Otaku]

Ian: "I've found a way to keep Baker quiet. Give him a file and some sharp edges."
Me: "That wouldn't last long though"
Ian: "I'd keep giving you metal."
Me: "Fair enough."

You'd have the safest robot ever, at least; I don't know how many times someone has cut themselves on an edge we forgot to file...we try, we really do, but something always ends up still sharp.
