...you just realized, "THERE"S NO MORE SWEET TEA. OMG. OMG. OMG"
...you have programmed a flamethrower for freshmen, and you're confident that it will be used some day.
...you realize that the manipulator driver doesn't know how many robots are active on the field.
...the mentor encouraged you to code the flamethrower
...another mentor is being hit on while he is in a Roary costume.
...your school team sponsor's white board is filled with things like; "PAWA", "Stephen was not here", and "WORLD DOMINATION"

I'll post more as they come to me.

(was thinking about making another thread about this and wondered why the idea sounded familiar - doi!)

...your programmer creates a automatic driving system and someone recommends calling it T.A.R.D.S. just so we can say "Our robot is driven by T.A.R.D.S."
...the crazy members always run off and do crazy, secretive projects without anyone's knowing
...your team never knows what the real time is
...your president somehow always comes the assumption that the system is corrupt somehow
...you're never quite sure if you've scared the new members or if they're just in shock

I'm going to take these next few from the perspective of the new members.

...you have no idea what any of the references that people are making mean.
...you have no idea why the little brown kid gets confused the big brown kid.
...you have no idea why Justin F. is calling that one girl cuddlemuffin.
...you have no idea why that guy is called fruitcup.
...you have no idea why 4 guys are hugging each other, and all of the sudden the PDA rule is void.
...you have no idea what the "You know you're a robolion when" thread means except for these particular set.
