Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

"The Kicker isn't pulling back!!!"
"What is this palardymalarchi?"
"It must be a software problem"
(It turned out to be a mechanical problem)

"I don't want to do that because if you loose the sensor then the robot will kill itself."

"So... I have to make High set the solenoid Low and Low set the solenoid High"

"Why don't I get a song like Carolyn (Sweet Caroline)?"

"We said "Where is Eric?" and we found him in the CAD room eating cream puffs"
"Does that surprise you?"

"Do we have everything we need before we go down to the basement?"
"Yeah."
"Looking at the cart, I see a robot, batteries, and Mountain Dew. I don't think thats everything."

"The robot kinda looks like a monster"
"You are looking at the back. So I guess it could look like a monster with its head up its butt"

(Before Build Season while fixing the '07 bot)
"So the shoulder is all the way down, but is still trying to drive the shoulder another 40 degrees down?"

(Talking about old robots)
"What robot was that? Oh, that was the refrigerator one..."

(Looking at old robots in the basement)
"This robot won Semi-Finalist in the world and won the IRI"
"This little robot won finalist in the world and could drag its upturned alliance partners off the ramp"
"This robot had crab-drive"
...
"This robot that can tilt the arm down and do a death spiral."
