"Always blame it on the person who isn't here."


"Where's John?"
"Upstairs."
"What's he doing?"
"Sleeping, most likely."
*faintly and sleepily from upstairs* "No I'm not...."

Please note, when this happened, I was writing the Woodie Flowers award for our mentor

Mentor to student: In all reality, you're really just a pain in the $@#$@#$@#
Me *saying aloud while typing*: Motivational...
Mentor to entire team except me: GET YOUR ASSES BACK TO WORK BEFORE I KICK THEM DOWN THE STAIRS
Me *saying aloud while typing*: Keeps the work flow going...

Me: *Arrives late to robotics after plane flight* "Hey watsup guys!"
Sun (foreign exhange student from vietnam): "Kevin say that if u not back in 15 minutes he will destroy steering"

Kevin is the distraught programmer, I'm the mechy who wanted steering

[Alalea]

Me and Sara are listening to "No Sleep in Brooklyn", sitting on desks, with Christine next to us. Not a lot of talking, but whatever.

Sara: No...sleep...in BROOKLYN! *excessive head-banging*
Me: *laughing*
Christine: *look of confusion and horror*
Teacher: *funniest look I've seen in awhile (mix of confusion, horror, and WTF?)*
Me: *elbows Sara* *points to teacher* *laughs*
Sara: *looks* *laughs*
Teacher: Poor Christine. She looks so...excluded.
Christine: ...

"Alright guys, the robot is done! Now if anything fails we can blame it on software."
*next day*
"$@#$@#$@#$@# it, why won't the claw open! What did you break!?"

You're the Mechy who didn't put on the steering correctly or design it. Also I didn't say 15 minutes or destroy. and I didn't say that at all.

"Lets just take out all the code to save weight."

[NinJA999]

Some from last year:
Mentor:"Sparks! I saw sparks!"
Mentor 2:"Wait, turn it on again. Let me see!"
*we turn robot on*
Mentor 2:"Those aren't sparks, that's a FLAME!!!"
*and that's how Sparky got his name*

"You cracked the lexan!! Lexan. Doesn't. Break. What kind of Mechite are you?"

--

This year:
Me:"Why do you keep writing PWN? It's PWM!"
Other Programmer:"Too much gaming."

Programmer:"I wrote my code a week ago. Now that we have the robot, it should work perfectly!"
Wirer:"Yes, but every time you say that, the number of things that will go wrong increases by two."

Mechite:"Ok, so charge it to 60 psi."
Me:"Ok, turn the compressor on."
Wirer:"Compressor on."
Me:"10 psi...20,25,30,35,40,45,50.."
Me:"55, aand stop!"
Me:"STOP!!"
Wirer:"I was waiting for you to say 60!"
*and now we say 60 whenever we want him to do something

And a final quote:

I am always bringing around my camera with a huge old flash unit.
"Nick, STOP FLASHING PEOPLE!!!"

[MasterMkanik]

me- "Two balls are allways better than one!"

Mentor- "The programmers said they don't need anything"
Me- "They need a table..."

Me- "Didn't we set a deadline of having this thing done of about... last week?"
Mentor- "yeah..."
Me- "Told you so"
Mentor- "shut up"

Me- "YESSSSS!!!! The robot can hold the controllor board!"
Everyone in the room- "YES!"

(The previouse years OI was quite heavy and we didn't have a place to set it down while waiting to go on the feild)

Me- Just bolt it down allready...
(after 30 min of talking about how to mount somthing, it ended up being bolted don in the exact same position it started in)

I thought you denied to be on our team?
Regardless, I was quoting Sun, not you.

But here's a Kevin quote:
"We can save more weight by programming more because code weighs less that air!"

[Fab.Master]

-S1-Holy @$#$%#%@ crap thats a case of Full Throttle
-S2-Can you get the other case out of the car
-S1- why do we need so many when only 2 people work on the bot
-Mentor- If its worth doing its worth overdoing, plus it keeps me going
