Girl: I’m so tired…
Robot: You think you are tired?!? Try being shoved into a crate w/o any light and being moved and bumped around for a week then getting left in some arena till you guys show up. Then I get tinkered with and thrown onto the field to battle like some gladiator.
Girl: No! I’ve had to take care of the scouting, the food for all the pit crew members and drive team AND show team spirit!
Robot:…ok you can sleep :yikes:

It’s always a touching moment when kids send their robot off to their FIRST competition.
After weeks of hard work, someone needs a hug.
Oh, you thought I was talking about the girl?

Taking the RoboProm to a whole 'nother level.
Scenes like this happen all around the world on Ship Date - and no, she’s not sleeping!
It used to be you shut the robot up in a dark box and sent it away from home. Now with Bag-n-Tag, you suffocate it.
These six week romances never last. One day she’ll get her heart broken when she finds him dating a toaster.

I suppose I’ll have to wait until after competition season to teach this robot how to tango.
There’s never a good robot bumper when you need one to sleep.
Sung to this tune
Robot, robot, candlelight
Robot Kilroy, Human Sue
And they climbed and they kicked and they shifted

Dreaming of trophies and ribbons and banners, neither the team members nor the robot noticed that they had now missed [strike]three[/strike] four matches in a row after staying up 24/7 for six weeks.
I would like to present the world’s most huggable robot.

“While visions of sugar plums danc’d in their heads…”
Sure, I have heard about the calming effects of blankets, teddy bears, pillows…but a security robot?!?
Good thing her name isn’t Roy…

Kinda redefines “security robot”, eh?

Robotics [roh-bot-iks], n. : A disease that causes those under its effects to become infected with team spirit, elevated intelligence, increased skill in many engineering disciplines, and, in rare cases, displays of affection towards robotics. Those infected, or ‘FIRSTers’ as they call themselves, often spread the disease to others, and do not have any objection to being infected.
FIRST. It’s more than a club. It’s a lifestyle.
