Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

A freshman didn't make a very obvious connection during a conversation...
Me: Go... hit your head on a wall or something.
*freshman hits head on table*
Me: No! A WALL!
Freshman: I don't know where a wall is!
...We were inside.

Later, building off of that joke...
Me (to a different freshman): Go hit your head on a wall.
*different freshman walks toward whiteboard*
Different freshman: Oh wait... that's not a wall.
...That's when the programming team decided If freshman=true then wall-finding skillz=0.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

After the light exploded in the animation room...

Student 1: I know why the light exploded!
Studen 2: Why?
Student 1: _______ was singing and weakened the light!

Needless to say, the person who had been singing was not all that happy.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

We were marking where to drill, but the sharpie kept smudging.
It started out completely incoherent but after a couple of takes he got it down... Just watch it. It has been transcribed in the video description.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

We had this one yesterday during dinner.

"Programmers, no sitting on the fabricators!"

But, apparently, there is no rule against fabricators sitting on us!
