Other on team #108, The SigmaC@Ts, from AIFL and Motorola.

Havent posted in a while so I thought I would pass this one along.

Anyone who knows me know that I wear A peice of the first robot I worked on. It’s a tread from SigmaC@T 98. Well, every now and then a cute looking girl will walk up to me, hold up the piece on the chain, and ask what it is. I look em straight in the eye and say “The ultimate pickup line”.

So, if you want cute girls (or guys in the FIRST gal’s case) wear a piece of robot around your neck. Err… not that I, uh, do that anymore… >

Got a better one?

-Robby

BTW - If they segragate teams at the , sorry to break it to team 108, but I’m on 111…

ITS HUMOR PEOPLE! GET OVER IT!!! B^P

Aw, geez, you guys…I have to say that FIRST-ers have the most ::ahem:: interesting pick up lines…

Par exemple, its not as bad as the story that Kirsten from 131 told me about at Nats how a guy walked up to her, put his arm around her, and another guy took a pic and then the two guys left.

Then theres the guys I know on my team who will sit for hours and try to count how many girls answer them when they say “hi” to them as they walk by :wink:

Lol, ok, Im done :wink: If I think of any more, I’ll let you know :wink:

ahhh pick up lines…

it’s so noisy there that i dont even bother. on the other hand, the red hair last year did stand out.

I was blonde the first day and then went red for the next day. it was cool :slight_smile:

my suggestion though is a video camera… i know this worked for most of the h/s students who went around interviewing girls all around florida. i was too busy kicking the robot and cursing it to work :slight_smile: heheh…

happy hunting!

we did that when we got stranded in atlanta on the way home…

“excuse me miss, aren’t you from chicago? No? ohh, okay”

“miss, would you be willing to take a survey? you would…thank you” (walk away)

“hey, do i know you?..i don’t…okay…”

“How low can you go?” is a question I expect folks to
ask the Limbo-bots not posters on these Forums.

Enough with the double meanings.

Note: I do not agree with, care for, or find any of these useful, mearly funny, and you will NEVER catch me using ANY of them…thank you…

Note to team 419: If i find you using ANY cheesy pickup lines, it is my duty as a citizen of the human society to beat you serverely…On that note…

Pickup Lines:

“Is that a piston in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?”

“WoW, that piston went up FAST.”

“So what’s your choice? over or under the bar?”

“You can life my bridge anyday”

“I lost my screen name, can i borrow yours?”

Pickup Line Knockdowns:

“The only thing in your piston is air boy!”

“That’s gotta be the smallest nut and bolt i’ve ever seen.”

“The only thing your doing tonight is playing with your robot”

“Don’t be a sore looser, you still have your pully to keep you company”

Disturbing phrases sure to be overheard at some point:

“…you see, the male connector is connected to the female connector like so, and that’s how the electricity moves through it…”

“Good job on the joystick dude”

“…alright, now push…PUSH IT…that’s it…no, …little to the left, good, now try again…push…push…” (pushing the goal of course…what else could this be? get your mind out of the gutter.)
