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

when you realize that you can't remember the names of the mascots of your school's rivals (or any other school in the area) despite having played with the pep band for every home football and basketball game for the past 3 years, yet FRC team mascots come readily to mind

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

When you are defragging the team laptop and you discover that a file is contained within 399 fragments.

When you are cleaning out said laptop and you discover there are 399 megabytes of files in the recycle bin.

When you notice the above, then make it a point to post it on CD before bed.

When you can no longer play soccer normally because you now have a tendency to stay on one side of the field and wait for the ball and won't move up the field.

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

...you keep thinking your team should try to get Harbor Freight as a sponsor, because in every ad (and I've been getting a lot of them lately), they say they have 330 stores.

...the fact that Harbor Freight has 330 stores is starting to drive you crazy.

This is so true.

When you start to notice team numbers in the mileage of your family's new car.

and you try to drive said car as much as possible so that you can be driving when said car hits 2345 miles, so i can pull over and take a picture of it.

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

when you're running airfoil simulations in engineering and produce an airfoil with a coefficient of lift of 0.399, and immediately have to tell your robotics buddies about it since it's the team you won regionals with rookie year

when you jump on CD in the middle of class while working on said simulations to share

when you're now trying to make an airfoil with a lift coefficient of 2.996, or some other number with the same sequence

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

When you start rewriting Lady Gaga songs about FIRST...here's what I've got so far...

Favorite FIRST Team
(To the tune of Paparazzi)

We are the crowd
We're c-coming out
Got my buttons its true
Need that button from you
It's so magical
Your robot is unbeatable

I got my team shirt
signed by Woody and Dean
I'm so fabulous
With glasses of safety
They don't have a price
Ready for the green field light

'Cuz you know that baby I
I'm your biggest fan
I'll follow you until you love me
You're my favorite FIRST team

Baby, we'll be famous
Chase you down until you choose me
I'll accept graciously

Promise I'll play fine
But I won't stop until that banner's mine

Baby we'll be famous
Chase you down until you love me
You're my favorite FIRST team
