Re: You know you're addicted to FIRST when...

--when you forget your safety glasses on your head.
--All 3 and 4 digit numbers are team numbers.
--all of your social media recommendations are for FRC teams.
--you expect to hear the FMS sounds when people announce "30 seconds!" (even during exams)

--"first" autocorrects to "FIRST" on your phone.

Re: You know you're addicted to FIRST when...

You procrastinate on your homework by researching things for your team, and eventually go down a rabbit hole of "oh what can this thing (which isn't related to what you are originally searching) do" for hours.
