"Quotes" that were said during build season
Lat year I used desmos to prove that not 1, not 2, not 3, but FOUR DESIGNS build team had started building were not going to work. Oh btw this was in less then 5 hours
Me: I think this is a lefty drill bit
Build mentor: I didn’t even know they made lefty drill bits
“He knows how do it he’s a Farmer”
“Our robot may be bad but at least our cookies are good.”
looking at the encoder output
Student 1: It’s constant
Student 2: Yeah, it’s constantly not working
Student 1: “Your code has a spelling mistake”
Student 2: “It’s OK as long as it’s consistently spelt wrong”
“Give me some - claps - context!”

While trying to get a limit switch to work:
“Let’s go to another level of jank and manually short this”
Later: “It’s either the code’s fault or the electrical’s fault.”
“It’s the electrical’s fault. Our code is impeccable.”
“Always give engineers two things to work on so when they get pissed off at one, they can go work on the other!” ~Justin Morris, NASA project manager
“Let’s list some requirements for our robot”
At least one student every year: “Not explode”, “Work”, “Lots of flashing lights”
