"Quotes" that were said during build season

[FRC4ME]

5:58 - "OMG! We won!"
5:59 - "Alright everyone, we've got a plane to catch."

Said when we won the Delphi Driving Tomorrow's Technology award at Atlanta. We had decided in advance we were leaving at 6:00 to catch our flight - fortunately they announced our award just two minutes before then. We must have seemed a bit rude, taking our award and leaving so quickly.

My team was sitting on the Mezzanine level at Nationals after losing in the Finals at Curie, and a few of us happened to look to the left and think we were seeing things, we weren't... The wave was in slow motion.

One day we surran wrapped our advisors truck, his response "But we needed that for shipping!"

___


In Antlanta-
"Hey Mooney, we found your twin"
"And she's on robotics -twilight zone music-"

"You know your on robotics when your scouting for fun in your dreams"
"You were scouting in your dreams? Freak."

"And they wait an appropriate interval before starting another! Perfect!"
-Mentor watching the team at the left end of the Mezzanine level repeatedly start waves.

lol, you mean trying to start waves. the other teams were usually paying attention to the other side waiting for a return wave to notice our consecutive ones, so they wouldn't make it more than a team or two over

This one came up at dinner on a friday at the LA Regional

I was eating a slice of chocolate cake. When I asked a question about Varun hes from India.

ME: Hey guys whats the difference between Varun and my cheesecake?

Everybody: I don't know?

Me: what do you think Varun?

Varun: Hmm, One's delicious, and one's a cheesecake?

Some of those are pretty darn funny. Does any one have some funny lines from there CAD Team?

[NorviewsVeteran]

"Mike, restack the wood pile"
"Okay"
"Amber, could you help Mike with his wood?"

1793!

[Chris is me]

"That robot is a MACHINE" - Me
"They're ALL machines!" - everyone else

At our scouting meeting in Atlanta.

Okay, this one isn't really robotics-related, but it involves our head mentor. He is a social studies teacher. Once I was in his U.S. History class and we were talking about the American Revolution:

Mentor: "And where did the French officers come from?"
Everyone: "France!"
Mentor: "I'm going home..."

This was an AP class, too.

As far as the CAD Team goes here's a good one.

"The CAD isnt bad. It's just not constrained well!"

After waiting for drawing from the engineers so we could start building I said" There comes a time in every project where you should shoot the engineers and start production."

but if you shoot the engineers who will make you a drawing set explaining the dangerous end of the gun, best aiming practices and how to pull the trigger

So this isn't really a quote but during build season Jonell decided to fix a battery. As she was fixing it, someone came up and started doing something to the battery along with her and they made a spark and it burned Jonell. Everyone yelled at her and said what the heck did she just do, and she just bursts out, "It wasn't me!!! It was Michelle!!!" We always had a way of blaming each other when we did something wrong Last year no matter what, it was all Jonell's fault. Now this year it is all my fault even if i'm not there.

That is because you were not there to prevent it from happening.
