So we had an unofficial vote, and it said that you are team captain. Now we get to blame you for everything that goes wrong, but we all get the credit!!!

Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

The "room" the programming and electronics work in is actually a indoor balcony with like a 5'9" clearance at its lowest, which doesnt help when a lot of the members are very tall.(im 6'1")

Student: "Lets count how many times this season i hit my head on the ceiling", current count is 17 times

We also left sarcastic notes on the low hanging pipes,

Note #1. "For (student #1), stand under here and jump" (supposedly on a day i wasnt here she broke a light bulb that way, she wasnt injured)

Note #2. "For (student #2), walk into this" (taped on another low hanging pipe with a peice of foam from our last bumpers attached to it)

We really need to invest in some hard hats

"There are more errors than code? What did you do?!?"

And to the same person:
"How did you get your foot trapped in a chair?"
