How many of those did you test drive on your wife?

[IMDWalrus]

Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm metallic gray and so are you.

Am I the only one who thinks it's just getting silly at this point?

Am I the only one who thinks it's just getting silly at this point?

With the limited number of sayings, I believe it is getting a little old too fast. Too bad I'm not romantically geeky, otherwise I might come up with a a few on my own.

Love them all. Printing them in large format with graphics to post around the shop this weekend. Not only Valentine's Day, it's Captain Marygrace's b day too.

Enough said

[Joe Matt]

I have some to add:

-My love is autonomous when you enter the room.
-You don't need a multipler for your beauty.
-Us breaking up would inhale audably.

[IMDWalrus]

We're all such geeks...not that's that a bad thing.

Two I've seen that we've missed:

-I've been programmed to love you
-I'm in overdrive!
-Let's swap data!

Congratulations. You've given 818 something to do - we're all laughing at them while we're killing off time before our meeting.

[EddieMcD]

Can you feel the love? You guys probably all know by now how I personally feel about Valentine's Day (yay, commercial hollidays!), but still, I kinda like this idea. Of course, I'm starting to figure out why half of us are losers when it comes to the opposite sex...

[jgannon]

Glad to see this feature back again.

[Billfred]

I've got a suggestion...

Just the sight of you makes my vision system go haywire.

Hey, we have to keep things fresh, right?

[Mike AA]

I just finished reading all this and realized it was last year, when I saw brandon's list go up on sunday the 14th.... wait that says 2004. DUH. Its neat though.

-Mike

Make someone in your heart feel special.

[Franchesca]

Okay question:

Does this mean that we are going to have a spotlight for every comercial holiday? And if that's the case ... when is the next one?

Just kidding .... I think that they are pretty cool just by reading them.

Now if a guy came up to me with one of these lines ... I'd start cracking up laughing ... like I do much of everything else.

Maybe we should put one of those advisory signs:

"Don't try this at home ... or at Robotics competitions"

[Brandon Martus]

Most of these came from team 125 via Erin Rapacki.
Many were pulled from this thread, or from others through IM.
Feel free to PM/IM me with more to add (I'll see an PM/IM before I see it in this thread).

Our team has a whole list of Innuendoes that we are planning to make into a t-shirt. Lets just say that they arn't appropriate to put on CD.

Happy Valentines Day!

- awsome.

<go tell the one you love that they are very special to you!>

If they aren't appropriate for CD, are they appropriate to wear on a t-shirt at a competition? To paraphrase Woodie, would your grandmother be proud that you wore them?

(Or to get more personal, would you be comfortable wearing that shirt while talking to a judge?)
