Not The Road's Fault

The eternal engineering student dilemma! When universities announced hybrid options post-pandemic, it created the ultimate Sophie's choice for engineering students: actual human interaction or the sweet, sweet freedom of using WolframAlpha during exams without suspicious proctors watching your every move. For those who spent four years calculating integrals by hand while WolframAlpha could do it in 0.3 seconds, this is the mathematical equivalent of "do I want friends or do I want an A+?" The pandemic taught us many things, but perhaps the most valuable lesson was that pants are optional and computational engines are forever.

The eternal academic caste system on full display! Physicists looking down on engineers with that unmistakable "I derive the equations, you just use them" expression. Pure theoretical superiority in human form. The hierarchy is real - physicists discover the laws of nature, engineers merely apply them, and Juan... well, Juan's just trying to pass Intro to Mechanics. Next time your engineer friend says "close enough," just flash this look and watch them dissolve into practical insignificance.

In the wild habitat of construction sites, two engineers engage in their natural behavior: rounding numbers until they're practically unrecognizable. One engineer shows a measurement of "70" and the other responds with "Nice" – not because it's actually nice, but because it's close enough to work and they can go home early. In engineering, π = 3, e = 3, and sin(x) = x when it's Friday afternoon. The building might lean slightly, but hey, that's why we have safety factors of 10.

The ultimate scientific progression: from complex engineering concepts to peering inside systems, only to discover it's all just applied physics. Meanwhile, here's a cat, judging your realization with the quiet smugness of someone who already knew the universe's secrets but chose to nap instead. That tea isn't for hydration—it's for contemplating the existential crisis that comes with knowing everything is just atoms doing their thing. The cat's expression screams "I could explain string theory, but I'd rather watch you struggle with basic thermodynamics."

Using MATLAB for basic arithmetic is like bringing a nuclear submarine to a bathtub race. The excessive computational power makes even the simplest task feel like you're performing digital acrobatics. Graduate students worldwide know that feeling of writing 47 lines of code just to calculate what Excel could do with a single cell formula. But hey, at least your advisor will be impressed by all those semicolons.

The ultimate scientific flex! This Venn diagram perfectly captures the academic food chain where physicists reign supreme. According to this diagram, physicists can mock engineers, get paid well, AND be better than chemists—the STEM field trifecta! Meanwhile, mathematicians are stuck just mocking engineers, engineers can't win Nobel Prizes, and chemists... well, they're apparently everyone's punching bag. The center suggests that the ultimate achievement in science is being better than chemists. Whoever made this was definitely a physicist with an axe to grind and a superiority complex the size of a supermassive black hole. The interdepartmental shade is strong with this one!
