"Quotes" that were said during build season

[Phyrxes]

We have a student who always asked if we can place some blatently rules violating piece of equipment on the robot.

Student: Hey Mr. B. can we....
Me: No
Student: Why?
Me: It Violates Rule <G2>, which is why we are renaming that to <G2, the Rule of "NO!">

Said by a teacher one Sat. night right before curfew laws set in.

Teacher:Go home so you don't get in trouble for being out after curfew
Me: If i get pulled over, i'll just tell the cops that i'm returning from a call(as i am a volunteer firefighter as well)
Teacher: Don't lie to them just go home

I ended up going home around 2:30-3 in the morning along with taking home two other teammates and the curfew law was midnight.


Another one from me after everytime i drove the robot off the ramp during practice and the one time i drove it up the ramp so fast that it hit the wall and bounced off and flipped off the ramp

Opps!!!! My bad!

One of the janitors for our school would come in pretty much every day during the build season and say "Let's build a robot!"

[SL8]

REminds me.

Mentor: The janitors are our best friends.

During the build season I wrote

"If your reading this, something is probably broken"

on the bottom platform of our Robot.

It was true every time



At at practice day at St. Francis High

announcer: "Hybrid mode starts in 3,2,1 *ding*"
Team member: "Why isnt the Robot moving?"
Other Team member "THE ROBOT ISNT ON!!!!"
*Leans over table and presses a button*
Team member: ".....Oh"

*A mentor* "I'm going to attempt to give you a college junior level education in 10 minutes, so if you don't understand, try to figure out the ingredients in these cupcakes."

These are my all time favorite quotes from the 1675 build season

K: “Cut measure, cut twice!”

G: JOSH!!!!! MAKE DO THINGS!!!...............MAKE DO THINGS!(the robot code)(That ended up on an Index card... that was left on the field at the Midwest Regional)

S-"You don't need 1,000 thread count, that's like egyptian silk. We're not putting a princess to bed!" (For the bumpers)

K-"1501, I'm in love with their robot."
R- ">_< KEVIN YOU"RE CHEATING ON OUR ROBOT!"

(Rewriting Woodie Flowers) Kevin- "What did I inspire you to do?
Max- "Kevin inspired me to throw away my life for robotics.... or Kevin inspired me to let robotics eat my brains.”

(In Chicago) 1625 mentor: oh, hello
Us: hi
Him: you guys look like you're in prison
Us: well we are the programmers

UWM Media "Can we get a shot of you working on the robot?"
*All the guys in the pit..* "NNNNOOOO!!!"
R- "Oh dang,.... I guess.....T-T" *Untightens the electrical block.. Everyone freeks out*
