"Quotes" that were said during build season

It was kinda late one night last week and we were trying to work but were way too tired. About five of us decided that George Foreman signs every single grill he makes, so I said "When I get home, I'm gunna tell my dad that we learned in robotics that George Foreman works in a Chinese sweatshop building and signing grills next to little Asian kids"

"do we have tiny springs?"
"of course not. remember, this is the school's garage. It may look well outfitted, but if we didn't buy it then we don't have it."

Mentor: "hey, come here a minute!"
student: "what? I didn't do anything?!?!"
mentor: "what? you aren't in trouble."
Student: "oh, sorry, it's just the michael factor."
(michael is our math teacher, who teaches in the garage most of the time)

"reed fails the battle, but andrew fails the war!"

"Power Cables! You can never have too many power cables..."

"Well, technically, it wasn't IN the kit, but it was IDENTICAL to the one in the kit..." (Last year, oops!)

"Quit wasting time, go yell at Aaron to get off the forums!" (As I'm the website guy)

"Um, about that..."

Me: "No, that's an array, not a function."
Other Programmers: "What's a function?!?!?"
Me: "Oh boy. (Grabs C programming book from 1992, hits guy over head) Read!"

"You forgot to factor in the Triforce Mechanism..."

"Only when... NO!"

"IT'S WORKING! FINALLY!" (Hears sickening snap of steel bars in background)

"Dude, I *LOVE* Cartoon Heroes!" (Everyone else: )

"Button madness!" (smashing down on button-making machine)

Here's what happens when the programmers gets bored:

if (6 < 5)
{
// robot spins around in circles, shoots off fireworks,
// and plays 'The Star-Spangled Banner'
}

Oh yes, I know all about that...

But there is already another thread for what people do when they're bored.

Something to the effect of:
"And that right there is the Sharpie line between right and wrong. Guess which side you cut on?"

And randomly, to justify what we are doing: "Because its more sexy now!"

Pertaining to the Sharpie comment:

The left side?

Student: I don't like inductive reasoning, therefore I don't like any reasoning.

Electronics Cpt. :So where am I going to put my electronics?

Me: WEll you can put some of them here, and some more over here. Oh, and there is space in the wheels too. Just run the wires through the shafts.

Electronics Cpt. : Well, I guess since the shaft is a dead axle I could actually do that, I would just have to make sure that the victors float within the wheel.

Me: We think to hard about these things.
