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

[thurston2619]

when your friends come to visit and the only thing you talk about the entire day is robotics fund raiser ideas your teams have.

when your email inbox only has emails from your robotics team

when you have more text messages in your inbox about robotics than any other topic

-When your coat check number from homecoming is 48, and you spazz and start discussing with your friend how awesome it is

-when you stay awake at night because you can't stop thinking about how to make everything you own black and orange. GO TECHTIGERS! GO 1251!

[Jmrandmax]

OMG that's cool!

When you use team numbers to remember the code to the main door at your residence hall. On multiple codes (they do change the codes from time to time).

No, you didn't. I happen to have that room, and the whiteboard doesn't have anything like that... (See earlier in this thread for comments on that.)

Oh, right, different school.

Now, it'll be funny if whoever is in 217 at your school was on a FIRST team, funnier if they were on 217.

When you think to yourself, "HMMMM, is there more to life that FIRST?"






the answer is yes

[drumfreak]

When you take a trip to South Carolina and have a connection flight in Atlanta, Georgia and as you are landing, you start to point out things like the Georgia Dome and the mall that you ate dinner at before Robo prom. And then you feel extremely sad because you wish that you could take a picture, but they have already made you turn off all battery operated electronics.
