Taking The Heat So The Business Majors Don't Have To

The expanding brain meme reaches its logical conclusion for engineers! Starting with the normie approach of Photoshop (basic brain), evolving to MS Paint (glowing galaxy brain), and finally ascending to the true intellectual's choice: AutoCAD, where your memes are literally technical drawings with precision lines and coordinates. Nothing says "I have an engineering degree and I'm not afraid to use it" like creating humor with software designed for industrial applications. The progression perfectly captures how engineers view creativity—if it doesn't have measurement lines and a proper scale, is it even worth sharing?

Those aren't gang signs - they're circuit diagrams being drawn in mid-air. The Spider-Man on the left is clearly illustrating a voltage divider while the one on the right is responding with the universal hand gesture for "your impedance matching is flawed." This is just standard communication between electrical engineers who've run out of napkins to draw on. Nature's whiteboard.

Engineering students everywhere just felt a disturbance in the force. Taking g = 10 m/s² (instead of 9.8) and π = 3 (instead of 3.14159...) are the classic "good enough" approximations that make calculations easier. But the consequences? A bridge that doesn't quite connect! This is what happens when you round numbers too aggressively in structural engineering. That tiny 5% error compounds into meters of misalignment. The construction workers on either side are probably wondering which calculator-cutting engineer is getting fired today.

Engineering students start with such optimism! They enter as bright-eyed Luke Skywalkers, ready to harness the mystical powers of calculus and physics. Fast forward to senior year—they've fully embraced the dark side, looking like Kylo Ren begging for sweet release from differential equations and senior design projects. The transformation from "I want to learn the ways of the Force" to "I want to be free of this pain" is basically what happens when you realize those 8 AM thermodynamics classes were actually the easy part. The engineering curriculum doesn't just teach you mechanics; it teaches you suffering.

The ultimate academic turf war, visualized in Venn diagram form! Physicists, mathematicians, and engineers each claim superiority while throwing shade at chemists caught in the middle. The overlap zones are pure scientific savagery - physicists and engineers "mock" each other but agree they're "better than chemists." Meanwhile, mathematicians and engineers "can't win a Nobel Prize" (ouch), and physicists can apparently "get a gf/bf" (unlike those poor mathematicians). The diagram perfectly captures the playful rivalry that happens when you put different STEM specialists in the same university building. Chemistry departments worldwide are collectively plotting their revenge diagram as we speak.

The eternal struggle of the STEM graduate - watching friends debate the ethics of defense contractors while secretly checking Lockheed's salary packages. Nothing says "moral flexibility" quite like condemning military-industrial complexes until you see their benefits package. The real quantum superposition is holding anti-war values while simultaneously calculating how many missiles you'd need to design to pay off those student loans.
