Yay! Post #3574 on this thread!!!

So, I came back to the shop after having to miss a lot due to circumstances beyond my control (homework. Sigh), and saw on the whiteboard devoted to the programmers, someone had written "programmers = cool whip (fluffy)". I asked around and nobody knew who had written it or what it meant... [insert Twilight Zone theme music here]

" Why is everything bent?"

" Is that supposed to happen?"

" why is this crooked?"



F:" Why does everything have to be your way?"
J: "....Cause i know what I am doing.?

This is what an un educated freshman(who thinks he knows what he's doing) to a well educated junior.

[Libby K]

THE BEST OF ALL TIME.

upperclassman-"god, you're bossy"
me-"no, i just know what it is that YOU'RE supposed to be doing."

you ALL forget the classic "SCREW IT!!!"

we had a great convo about screws.
it involved(in order)
-screw it
-harder
-faster
-you're crooked!
-do you need the girls to do it, or can you boys handle it on your own (me)

we basically ended up having to stop work to die of laughter.


and, being one of the only girls on the team (and the only one at the meeting)

our captain: hey....we need someone to vacuum. LIBBY!!!!


and, there's one kid who can't put it thru his head that my family relations in FIRST have nothing to do with how i should be treated (i.e. he thought i was extra-special....which in SOME ways i know i am.)

same upperclassman who said i was bossy- ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY KAMEN GIRL.
*entire team kneels on floor and bows repeatedly*
"the mighty kamen girl...the mighty kamen girl...."

my team flippin' OWNS. deal.

Emily: Jaine, stop hitting on my boyfriend!

[Stuart]
