Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
Me: "What is the motor diameter?"
Student: "Two point five." Me: "Units?" Student: "Yes." Me: "Square root of hertz? That's an interesting unit." Student 1: "What should we call it?" Student 2: "Squirts?" Today the programmers got into (yet another) Mac vs. PC debate. Apparently the OS gods preferred Mac today... Mac user: "Mac boots up faster." Me: "No; you can't beat Windows 7's boot time." Mac user: "Oh yeah? Prove it." Me: "Okay, I will." <I take out a stopwatch and punch the power button on one of the programming PCs> PC: "One of your disks needs to be checked for consistency..." Me: "What? NO! DARN IT!!!" Mac user: <insane laughter> I was unable to recover my argument after that. |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
This quote was said about five days before kickoff by a friend of mine who had just joined robotics. Even though it was before build season I though this was hilarious.
Student: "Kevin,did I miss kick off because I heard it was last Saturday?" Me: "No it was last Saturday last year but it got moved this year". Student: "Did Fleck (Our adviser) move it back this year?" Me: "No, FIRST did." Student: "Who's FIRST?" This quote was said by the same person two days after kickoff and he didn't go because he had to work, so he didn't know what happened that day. Student: "Do we have a robot built yet?" |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
"Actually make a full design. Don't just say you'll use a sensor or something"
mentor, during a design session. Then a few days later: "How's that going to deploy?" "Sensors" Also, after I got a nasty gash on my wrist from working on the electronics board: My dad:What happened to your hand? Me:I'm not emo, the breakout boards are really sharp! dad:How did that happen? Me:I was stripping and... Dad:Stripping? Me;Stripping WIRES. Like taking the insulation off of them Dad:Isn't that dangerous to take the insulation off the wire? Me:*looks at wrist* Apparently. Needless to say, my parents to not have a very firm grasp of what goes on in robotics. |

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
Student: (completely serious) "Well, the electronics don't really need to be protected in the last 20 seconds..."
Mentor: -starts cracking up- "Um, look at Jennie's face." -Student looks at me. I have just about had a heart attack- Student:....Just kidding! |
