Are You Dom Or Sub With Your Control Systems?

The academic food chain of certainty! Mathematicians live in their perfect abstract world of "what IS" - absolute truths that can't be argued with. Meanwhile, scientists are stuck in probability land with their bell curves and p-values, forever saying "what PROBABLY is." Engineers? Those practical maniacs are busy building rockets and machines that don't even exist yet! "What ISN'T YET" is their playground. But bioengineers? *mad scientist cackle* They're the chaotic evil of academia, creating unholy DNA-spliced monstrosities that nature never intended! That praying mantis-snake hybrid? WHAT NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN! 🧬💉

The kid found a heart-shaped solution while mathematicians have been sweating over optimal packing configurations for centuries! This is what happens when you don't tell children something is "mathematically impossible" - they just go ahead and make math look like a Valentine's Day card. The 17 square packing puzzle is a classic combinatorial challenge, but apparently all it needed was the unfiltered creativity of someone who hasn't yet learned that math is supposed to be "hard." Next up: let's give toddlers the Riemann Hypothesis and see what happens!

That moment when your brilliant "horsepower multiplication theory" crashes into the wall of actual physics! Sure, a pregnant horse isn't suddenly packing double the watts—horsepower is a unit of power equal to 746 watts, not a literal count of equines involved. But hey, technically the pregnant horse IS carrying more mass while maintaining speed, so it's working harder... just not in the way my sleep-deprived brain tried to explain during finals week. The physics teacher's disappointed seal face says it all—another student who needs to stop watching midnight YouTube and start reading textbooks.

The YouTube algorithm really knows how to kick an engineer while they're down. Nothing says "welcome to your career" like being recommended videos on loneliness right after watching engineering content. The perfect digital reminder that while you're busy calculating stress loads and designing circuits, your social circuit might be experiencing some downtime. The algorithm has spoken: your relationship with differential equations is more stable than your relationship status. At least your CAD models will never ghost you.

Engineering students just got murdered by their own university. The tweet essentially says "avoid contact with romantic partners... unless you're an engineering student because, well, we all know you don't have any." The casual brutality with which the University of Alberta acknowledges the stereotypical social desert of engineering student life is both savage and statistically accurate. The data doesn't lie—those differential equations aren't the only things going unsolved in their lives.

The academic credentials arms race we never saw coming. While Bill Nye has been explaining volcanoes with baking soda for decades, Dolph Lundgren was quietly collecting chemistry degrees like they were movie villain roles. Turns out the guy who played Ivan Drago could theoretically synthesize the performance-enhancing substances his character used. The irony is exquisite - one man built a career on being "The Science Guy" with a single mechanical engineering degree, while the other punched Apollo Creed to death and then casually earned multiple advanced chemistry degrees across three continents. Just another reminder that in science, as in boxing, it's unwise to judge based on appearances.
