In His Mind, It Made Perfect Sense

The eternal duality of creative professionals! While designers will fight to the death over who came up with the rounded corner first, programmers have embraced the ancient art of "copy-paste-modify" with zen-like acceptance. One coder openly confesses to theft while the other calmly disowns responsibility—because in the programming world, there's no such thing as original code, just Stack Overflow answers repurposed with slightly different variable names. The chad programmer knows all code is merely borrowed from the cosmic repository of ideas (and GitHub).

Engineers everywhere just felt that burn! 🔥 The perfect example of the technical brain vs. communication skills paradox. Brilliant minds who can design bridges and rockets but somehow struggle to explain what they had for lunch. It's like having a supercomputer running on dial-up internet! The most relatable part? Those 1.4k upvotes are probably all from engineers nodding silently while failing to articulate why they agree.

In the corporate jungle, mechanical engineers are the default problem solvers—the ones everyone assumes can fix literally anything with moving parts. The conversation perfectly captures that moment when management doesn't even bother to specify which type of engineer they need anymore. "Normal engineer" = mechanical engineer, apparently! It's like being the household's designated spider killer, except instead of spiders, it's broken HVAC systems, jammed printers, and that weird noise coming from the conference room ceiling. Mechanical engineers reading this are nodding while simultaneously fixing someone's chair with a paperclip.

Engineers don't just solve problems—they enjoy the intellectual combat. You think you're winning the argument until you notice their smirk. That's when it hits you: they're not defending their position because they have to; they're doing it because debating the tensile strength of various bridge materials over dinner is their idea of a good time. The rest of us tap out, while they're just warming up.

Engineering students vs. Mechanical Engineering students in their natural habitat! On the left, Electrical Engineers (EE) see resistors—those zigzaggy components that fight against current flow. Meanwhile, Mechanical Engineers (ME) look at the exact same squiggle and see springs with their constant k! Two disciplines, same symbol, completely different worlds. It's like they're speaking different languages while drawing the same doodle. Next time you see a squiggly line, just remember—your interpretation reveals which science tribe you belong to!

Programmers evolving through the C language family like they're unlocking cosmic superpowers! Starting with plain ol' C (yawn), then leveling up to C++ with object-oriented goodness, before ascending to C# with its Microsoft-flavored magic. But wait—there's more! The bottom two aren't even real languages but some interdimensional programming joke where your brain transcends reality and you start coding in 4D and 5D. The facial expressions perfectly capture that moment when your code finally compiles versus when you've become one with the machine and can see matrix code falling around you. The final form? You're basically Doctor Manhattan but with better debugging skills.
