Close Enough For Engineering Standards

Fleming's Right Hand Rule explained by a cartoon teenager making a gun shape with his hand. The rule determines how current, magnetic field, and motion interact in electromagnetism. Physics students spend years mastering this, but apparently all we needed was a nervous kid gesturing dramatically. Next semester I'll just show Rick and Morty instead of writing 40 equations on the board. Would probably improve my teaching evaluations.

The spatial pun is strong with this one! When engineers graduate, they don't just get smaller—they get proportionally smaller according to the inverse square law of dad jokes. "Engifar" is what happens when your degree suddenly puts you at a distance from normal human humor. The tiny hard hat remains regulation size though, because safety standards don't scale down with wordplay.

Everyone's lining up for battery electric vehicles while electromagnetic motion transport sits there like the unpopular kid at prom. This is basically every revolutionary technology that's too ahead of its time. Remember when Nikola Tesla wanted to give us wireless electricity and the world was like "nah, we good with these wires everywhere"? Same energy. The real technological leap forward is always the one getting ignored while we obsess over incremental improvements. Maybe in 50 years we'll all be zooming around on electromagnetic transport wondering why we spent so long arguing about battery range and charging stations.

The perfect nuclear energy debate in miniature! Someone tries the classic NIMBY (Not In My Backyard) gotcha about nuclear waste disposal, but encounters a pro-nuclear enthusiast who flips the script with "You can with mine, nuclear is the way." What makes this extra spicy is how it highlights the stark divide between nuclear skeptics who focus on waste concerns versus advocates who see nuclear as a crucial clean energy solution. Fun fact: spent nuclear fuel is actually incredibly compact—all the waste ever generated by U.S. reactors would fit on a single football field stacked just 10 meters high! Meanwhile, the waste from your "clean" technologies? *gestures broadly at massive landfills full of solar panels and wind turbines that can't be recycled*

Two types of physicists in their natural habitat! On one side, we've got the pragmatic engineer with their trusty lookup tables going "brrrrr" like a money printer. On the other, the theoretical purist insisting on deriving EVERYTHING from first principles like some mathematical masochist. The pencil tip perfectly represents that theoretical physicist's ego—sharp, precise, and ready to poke holes in your approximations. Meanwhile, the lookup table folks are just trying to get stuff done before the grant money runs out!

Who needs a girlfriend when you have the Fourier Transform? This mathematical marvel transforms your complicated problems into elegant solutions - and unlike your ex, it's never moody! The Fourier Transform takes those messy time-domain signals and turns them into beautiful frequency spectra. It's basically the Marie Kondo of mathematics - if your differential equation doesn't spark joy, just Fourier Transform it! Sure, that integral looks intimidating at first glance, but at least it won't text you at 3 AM asking "what are we?" The only commitment issues here are deciding which boundary conditions to use.
