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

-When your friend tells you to stop talking about anything that has to do with robotics around her. You are scilent for almost 5 hours. what makes you talk? A house number of 216 [Robodawgs II]
-When you are at a football game where you dont think you know either team. Then you hear the school name and realize.. "Hey! They have a team!!!"

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

-When your friend posts a facebook status about Haagen-Dazs cups, diet Coke, and Crackerjack, and you launch into a discussion regarding it.
-When you realize that you know more robotics people from other teams than you have team members
-When you have a three-way twitter conversation regarding robots, a FIRST team member exchange program, and not letting SoCal students drive in MI winters

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

When you are walking down the street to drop your brother at the babysitters before going to your bus stop and you realize the house across the street is your FRC team # (I havent looked for FTC yet lol)

when you are sad that youll never look at your phone and see your team # because either you are asleep by then (23:33) or the time just doesnt exist (36:79)

when you read this and all you can think is "i remember the time that happened to me..."

hahahahaha were all addicts!!! we need FIRST ADDICTS ANONAMOUS!!!!!! (sp?)

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

When you keep seeing all of your Wisconsin friends make mean-spirited comments about 'Da Bears on Facebook, think they're being rather rude to a great robotics team, then realize that they were referring to the football team.
