Favorite Robotics Quotes 2004

[MOEmaniac]

My favorite quote was at the NJ J&J Regional when the judge who was presenting the Judges award to my team said "who aren't afraid to wear bright green ****" but wat she really meant to say was "who aren't afraid to wear bright green shirts. When she said that my whole team couldnt stop laughing and all the other teams were laughing too. lol

*sighs* Scuba Steve...had you bothered to read the page before posting you would have seen I had already posted that quote. And I think it was suppose to be "who aren't afraid to wear bright SHADES of green." though I may be wrong.

It's ok though, I still love you!

Oh yes..I had forgotten. A kid on my team, Alan Threefoot, is one of the few people on my team who speaks French and since I take french is school...I will occasionally talk to him in french. I think it was last year that I started to tell Alan I loved him because he always got this weird serious look on his face, raised one eyebrow, and shook his head. Once I learned he could speak French I began to yell...randomly..."Je t'aime, Alan!" which is I love you, Alan. It's one of my favorite quotes.

Erin Z. is an amusing person when it comes to things she'll do/say on camera. I think most of my favorite qoutes come from her...here are a few..

"I love pneumatics. Pneumatics is my life. I want to spend all my time on pneumatics"
"Once they got the Dr. Pepper rolling, the brain started working..."
"My window overlooks the bird feeder so I was looking out my window one morning and I was like...Ooo look, a bird....and then it was like...ooo look, my cat. And it was like umph *Erin makes a motion of shoving food into her mouth* and then...nooo! The poor birdie."

[Mini-D67]

" PUCKER!!! PUCKER!!!" *Stunned look from ref* "No no no.. the carpet! The carpet!" -The great Tom Nader

" Whos are we against next? 67? Oh sh*t, its the wedge bot" - Heard some random person say that this weekend at Buckeye, lol

(Looking at pneumatic parts) "What makes these work?" "Uh, air I think, Jim..." - Me to mentor Jim Meyer

[anna~marie]

from my boyfriend, who also happens to be our team, in reference to the number of FIRST related couples...
"i'm tellin' you, its a cult!"

[dreamgoddess27]

Last year at Nationals the team in the pit next to us wasnt doing very well. To brighten their day we decorated their pits and gave them our Never Say Die Robie award. They were so happy. But thats not the funny part. That day while we were in our pits they were eating lunch, pizza. When one of their team members, who was very tall and bulky, looked into the box of pizza and yelled "Hey! Theres no more pizza!!!" All I can say is that it made my day. If it doesnt seem all that funny, I guess you had to be there.

[JakeGallagher]

When speaking of the bad days our coach was having, or maybe problems that came up with various FIRST related projects this season, one mentor said this:

"Some days, it's like doing dirty laundry...no matter how much you get done, there's always more."

(We don't get it either)

[NotQuiteFree]

Favorite quote? I'm not sure, but the quote I heard the most this year had to be, "Well, can't you make that work in the code?" or, "That has to be a coding issue." Seeing as I'm the programmer, it got old REAL fast.

Ben..you are the slowest stripper I've ever seen!

Oh my gosh! I remember that, but I thought that the mentors were the beans because we were making fun of our mentor who we've banned from Taco Bell?

"Blame Tom!"-Everyone on Team#66 during bulid season.

or

"Maybe thatwasn't the best idea."-Me watching a qualifying match at GLR.

Babe, yep this is your girlfriend, I was reading random threads, came across this one and read the "Blame Tom" quote. I had to look up, and yep it was you. I love you, Vicki
-fyi - For everyone else we weren't on the same team, so when I read this I burst out laughing.
