not kickoff, but end of week 5: “please do not refer to sexual assault as team-building”

um.

This is the robotics equivalent of putting a warning label on a bicycle saying "Don't sit on the handlebars, and if you do we are cleared of all liability for your injury"

#sexual assault #queue #robotics #these don't solely have to be kickoff things!!! It's just a funny name I thought up #ask #ask to tag

I had to look these back up to show some people on my engineering team that are using a visual programming language, and I figured I’d submit it here too.

WOW I HATE THIS.

So I finally managed to watch the Kick-Off video, and I am so pissed I couldn't do it this year since I'm to busy to hang around my old robotics team! I could've cosplayed to that event since I am in fandoms with robots who like music!

True and real

Hey mate, update your blog name :)

Done (sorry)!

Notes are rarer than gold at this point. We don't even have a chassis yet. Nobody on the team knows what they're doing. We aren't focusing on the core necessities. A normal year for my team.

yeah that tracks

The basketball year was 2012! I.e., this year!!!

Robot brainstorming? Studying the rule book? Prioritizing game play elements?

Nah, this is playing Ultimate Frisbee. 😂⭕😂

I HAVE NOT WATCHED THE KICKOFF VIDEO YET I AM A DISGRACE TO MY ROBOT FAMILY

I am so so so so concerned for your safety :(

I NEED to know the story behind this

at comps my team makes circles instead of hearts at our drive team, as in "we love you from the bottom of our circles" because one year the human player's hand was in a cast and couldn't make the heart shape

I mean the actual human heart is more of a circle shape than a heart shape imho

#whatever works! #ask #robotics #queue #also I love that you heart-hands (well circle-hands) your drive team that's lovely

My robotic's teacher, when we were graduating: Make sure you all visit! Us: We will. The teacher: Especially on Fridays, you'll get free food. (The parents had a potluck every Friday)

You lucky duck X3
