Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Talking about modifying the 'bot for an offseason event.
Josh: How many wheels can we use?
Brandon: As many as we want.
Josh: Lets just put them all on! Screw these tough boxes!
Brandon: Well there is a weight limit. *Goes off on some comment about antigravity*
(Mentor) Brian: Now you've gone from the practical to absurd.


Cody: If I stick this allen wrench into this ground socket, will it electrocute me?
Me: I wouldn't do that if I were you. There's not wood...All I see is metal. And that means no one is going to try and stop the current. You're screwed. Haha.


Cody: I might not be able to go to Relay For Life. Marc is then. I care more about Marc than saving people from cancer.
Me: Glad to see your priorities are right.


(Mentor) Brian: [I'm here to make] snide motivational comments.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

"Is it a sport?" Asked quite frequently today...

also, "If it compiles properly, recompile. You did something wrong."

Pokey: "The phases of build season...well...we find out about the game, then we design it..." *pauses for a long moment, trying to remember the mentor's exact wording* "and panic. Panic supercedes all of those."

Clint was one of our new recruits. He worships Dean Kamen. I'm not even kidding.

Jennie:"This is driving me crazy!"
Paul:"Nice pun."

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

There's this kid named Rachel on our team (just graduated) who talked constantly about everything you could imagine. The following has been written on our blackboard for the past three years:

Code:
    NORMAL
                                 A O-------------------O B
 CONVERSATION
                                             /\
                                             |
                                             |
    RACHEL                                  /
                                 A O-------/     /-----O B
 CONVERSATION                                   /
                                               |
                                               |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

During physics class with other non-team 188 students.
The class is just fooling around because the teacher left the room and is next door. Few minutes later he walks in and points out what each and everyone of us was doing during is absence. It was magical how he saw us while in the other room.
*student from team* "Man it's amazing how he knows"
*random student* "Mr. ___ sees everything man..."
*me* "...but can he see why kids love cinnamon toast crunch?"
It was quite funny in the moment.
