Just had to post this one.

"Definition: 'Love' is making a shot to the knees of a target 120 kilometers away using an Aratech sniper rifle with a tri-light scope. Statement: This definition, I am told, is subject to interpretation. Obviously, love is a matter of odds. Not many meatbags could make such a shot, and fewer would derive love from it. Yet for me, love is knowing your target, putting them in your targeting reticle, and together, achieving a singular purpose, against statistically long odds." - HK47 in KOTOR

Hahahaha.... I love KOTOR. HK47's so awesome.

If you knew my team's drive team motto, you'd know why it wouldn't catch on...

In postable terms, it's "Don't screw up."

It's the motto of our coach's F1 team, and it just stuck during one of our regionals amid a flurry of really stupid mistakes (forgetting to turn the robot on during a practice match? Check!). Surprisingly, it did its job and our new drive team has really sharpened up. It's almost a mentality now that we carry to competition.

Showed this to a friend. Had to say "It's mathematically true". Thought it belonged on here.

From work a few nights ago: "You may notice that your car slowed down only after you bumped someone. We do assist physics around here." -- me to a customer who said his car slowed down during a race. He got the point pretty quickly.

(I work at a go-kart track. We do have ways to slow a kart down when we need to.)

I have a lot of sense, but none of it is common.

If at first you don't succeed, give it up before your deed.

Who would have thought that that stupid phrase would become such a large part of everyday conversation?
