Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Me, when about to install RobotPy on the practice bot to our programming mentor: "We're spreading the gospel of Python!"

One of our engineering mentors, when the robot was starting to get heavy:

"Well, we could always strap a bunch of helium balloons on the robot"

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

"But the empty battery weighs less!"

"Looks like the robot needed another blood sacrifice."

While detaching our electronics board:
"Is this technically removing the robot's heart or intestines?"
"Its nervous system, I think."

Later that night - a.k.a. midnight on the last day of build:
"So we pretty much bagged an empty frame?"
"Yep."

And on the list goes...

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

These were all chants we used in the mosh pit during eliminations in Colorado:

"My name is Adrian"
"We can make a circle too"
"Believe in the me that believes in you"

And one of my favorites from the entire regional:

"Totes my goats, totes totes my goats"

What's to ask? Disappointing your family is all too common. Disappointing your village is two or three sigmas out. Disappointing your cow takes special talent.

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

Not a quote so much as a conversation that was occurring:

Several boys on my team were discussing hair care products today, while the girls worked on the practice robot...
