Thanks Katie for returning the favor ^_^

When your family and friends think of endless "What's better than (thing)? More (thing)!" puns and plays on the chant all day. (It's kind of annoying after awhile... Yes mom, more dinner is better than dinner...)

when your 250 word reflection on why you love FIRST turns into a 2 page, 750 word FIRST is awesome paper.

EDIT: It is now 1000 words and counting

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

...you see someone wth a clipboard and ask for scouting info

...you are in the middle of class and your teacher finds you surfing the web on your i-touch (reading chief delphi)

...you are asked your name and you give your team number


...you go to your team's website 4-5 times. (per day)

Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

When you get to give a customer change for a team number and you get mad at your boss because you have to count back the change instead of handing it to them and saying "and 330 is your change" or any other team number.

I was so glad yesterday when i told a customer "your total is 1519"

When you struggle using other online forums and think, Why can it not be more like CD. (Yes this JUST happened to me, I expect all forums to look and work like CD, anything else just feels inferior)

YEAHHHHHHHHHH!


-One of the rehearsal numbers in your band music is 217, so you draw a Thunderchickens logo next to it.

-You write FEDS!! in block letters next to rehearsal number 201

-And draw flames at number 67
