Engineering Is Really About Talking Shit

The engineering pain is real with this one! The meme shows SpongeBob's pet snail Gary being "revolved" in SolidWorks—a professional 3D CAD software used by engineers—right before it crashes spectacularly. The joke hinges on the double meaning of "revolve," which in SolidWorks creates a 3D solid by rotating a 2D profile around an axis (basically turning Gary into a lathe-turned object). But instead of completing the operation, SolidWorks does what SolidWorks does best: crashes mid-operation and ruins your entire afternoon. Every engineering student who's lost hours of work to a SolidWorks crash is currently having war flashbacks.

The eternal engineering department rivalry captured in its natural habitat! 😂 Civil, Electrical, Computer, and Mechanical engineers are basically the four horsemen of the technical apocalypse - always at each other's throats about whose discipline is superior. The knife-wielding Mechanical engineer is ready to prove that physical solutions trump all, while the Computer engineer tries to keep the peace (probably suggesting they could solve this with an algorithm). Meanwhile, Electrical is about to throw hands because someone definitely insulted their circuit designs, and Civil is just standing there wondering why everyone's fighting when they could be building bridges - both literally and figuratively! The interdepartmental warfare continues while the dean cries in the corner...

When your entropy approaches zero, so does your sex life. Chemical engineers understand that disorder is essential for interesting reactions. Statistically speaking, a perfectly ordered system leaves no room for... spontaneity.

The mathematical glow-up we never knew we needed! The top panel shows a regular vector (𝑣) looking plain and unimpressive. But the bottom panel? That's our boy after normalization—a unit vector (𝑣̂) with magnitude 1, looking absolutely fabulous with that hat! The character's reaction perfectly captures how mathematicians and physicists feel when they normalize vectors to simplify calculations. Sure, regular vectors get the job done, but unit vectors? Those elegant normalized beauties make everything from quantum mechanics to 3D graphics so much cleaner. They're the mathematical equivalent of putting on a tuxedo before solving equations.

The Fourier Transform takes your messy time-domain signals and magically decomposes them into beautiful frequency components—like sorting your sock drawer by color and size. Meanwhile, the Courier Transform is what happens when delivery drivers play hot potato with your package! One transforms waves into frequencies, the other transforms your pristine Amazon order into abstract cardboard art. Both are transformative experiences, but only one requires calculus... the other just requires crossing your fingers and hoping your "fragile" sticker was actually read!

That tangled mess of wires isn't just an electrician's nightmare—it's Kirchhoff's Law in its most chaotic natural habitat! For those who slept through Physics 101, Kirchhoff's Law states that current flowing into a junction equals current flowing out. Looking at this electrical disaster, the only thing being conserved here is my will to never become an electrical engineer. The "Apply" at the top is the universe's cruel joke—as if this is a job listing for someone to untangle this electric spaghetti monster. Honestly, this is what happens when entropy gets a promotion and a corner office.
