No, I mean, I doubt anyone from SPP aside from you is part of it

Pretty cool that you're doing it, though

Oh. It is awesome. I hope other people do it, though. FIRST is an awesome thing to be a part of.

My school increased it's robotics budget to over 5 grand. I thought about joining, but I don't have a rollie backpack.


Robotics is pretty cool. The people who are in the robotics club at my school........aren't.

Ugh. Our robotics budget is tiny right now. 5 Grand...that would do some good for us right now. :P

Yeah, robotics people get a little...crazy. But, on those last matches of the games, we went nuts today.

What do you need a rollie backpack for, though??

I'm in robotics, but I don't build the robot or anything.

All I do is **** around with some other kid, while the nerdy annoying ass faggots do all the work.

I don't think the mentors will approve of that...at least, the female ones...

Yeah, I don't help build it that much, but I do animation.

Why not?

It would prevent sexual harassment in the workplace because all the evil men would just be ****ing the robot instead. It would be an excellent tool for the neo-feminist reich.
