Engineers: Making Your World Work While Nobody Notices

The engineer's solution to a non-right triangle? Just scribble out that pesky non-90° angle and draw in a perfect right angle! Who needs mathematical integrity when you can just redraw reality? This is basically the engineering equivalent of "have you tried turning it off and on again?" but for geometry. Pure engineering pragmatism at its finest—if the math doesn't fit your needs, just modify the universe until it does!

Nuclear fusion enthusiasts know the struggle! Trying to fuse two deuterium atoms is like trying to push two magnets together—they resist until you apply ridiculous amounts of energy. Meanwhile, deuterium + tritium is the power couple of fusion reactions, requiring temperatures of "only" 100 million degrees instead of the billion+ for deuterium-deuterium fusion. It's basically the cheat code of nuclear physics. The sun gets away with D-D fusion because it has the mass of 333,000 Earths squeezing those atoms together. Talk about performance pressure!

Behold the mathematical masterpiece where e = π = √g = 3! This "proof" commits every mathematical sin possible - equating constants that are fundamentally different, claiming 9 = 10, and somehow concluding 1 = 2. Then it spirals into a glorious dumpster fire of circular logic to "prove" that 3 equals ANY number, culminating in π = 69 (and π = 420 as a bonus lemma). Pure mathematical anarchy that would make actual mathematicians break out in hives. The "Fundamental Theorem of Engineering" is the chef's kiss - a playful jab at how engineers sometimes use π ≈ 3 for quick calculations. It's like watching someone commit mathematical crimes with absolute confidence and then drop the mic with "Q.E.D." (Quite Easily Done... or something less polite).

Engineering professors have exactly two examples in their repertoire: the pendulum and the Tacoma Narrows Bridge collapse. You can set your watch by it. First day of class: "Let's discuss simple harmonic motion." Week 7: "Remember how the Tacoma Bridge oscillated itself into oblivion? No? Let me show you the footage for the 47th time." The cycle continues, semester after semester, like a perfectly damped oscillator.

The ultimate electrical engineering showdown! This meme brilliantly plays on the "don't say you love the anime if you haven't read the manga" gatekeeping trope, but with a scientific twist. Modern Tesla (the company and its CEO) is the "anime" - the flashy, mainstream version everyone knows. Meanwhile, Nikola Tesla himself - the eccentric genius with his lightning coils and revolutionary AC power systems - is the original "manga" that true science nerds appreciate. The historical Tesla was basically creating lightning in his lab while modern Tesla is making electric cars. Both are electrifying in their own way, but only one was feeding pigeons and claiming to receive signals from Mars!

The diagram is technically correct, just not in the way your professor intended. Ohm's Law (V=IR) represented as an anime love triangle between Volt, Ohm, and Ampere characters. Resistance has never looked so... resistible? Electrical engineers spend four years learning formulas just to end up giggling at circuit diagrams like this. The relationship between these three variables is indeed quite intimate - change one and the others must adjust accordingly. Just like dating, but with fewer sparks and more predictable outcomes.
