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

....you can't go to a single FIRST event without someone saying "Hey, Look! It's SuperNerd!"

[dm224a]

when walking through a crowded hallway after a competition and realize that there is a cargo cart right behind you you instinctively start to yell "ROBOT" and then right before you do you realize that you aren't at a competition and the cart isn't a robot.

When you're astounded (and dismayed) that this thread has been off the portal page for so long, and feel it is your sacred duty to put it back on.

You look at the You know you've overdosed on FIRST when... thread and see you have read almost a hundred pages when you should be sleeping.

That sounds like a backhanded way of asking how to pronounce Karthik's last name.

[gracie.]

you realize that this thread was started when a good chunk of your mentors were sophomores and freshmen in high school, and when you were 9. CD makes me feel really young.

When you're actually sad that school's closed.

When you spend your summer vacation sleeping and designing.

When you know more people living abroad than people living in your town.

You're welcome.

When you set display clocks at the store to times reflecting local team numbers

Oh, I never would have thought.

When I am playing soccer and keep thinking that you could save so much work if you could rebuild 2010's robot.

When swimming in water polo (right at the end of build season) and cannot stop thinking about the robots that are going to be unveiled in the coming weeks. This causes you to miss instructions and have to do more swimming as punishment, so you get to think of the robots again... a glorious cycle.

[dictionaria13]

When you're still going to robotics meetings, even though you've graduated and thus aged out, because you can't think of anywhere you'd rather be on Monday and Thursday nights.
