Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

when someone says "Which color do you like better? Red or blue?" and your response is "It depends on which teams are on the alliances."
This happened to me last night and it took me several moments of confused looks to realize that they weren't talking about alliances but about the actual colors and the person who asked me wanted nothing to do with robotics. (The blasphemy!)

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

You know when it is just a week before school, you have already had a dozen team meetings since school let out and you are trying to figure out how to add a few more meeting days.

You also know you have a problem when the team is growing to almost 50 students and its just that one lone teacher, you, wondering how to get them all to drink the cool aide....
