The Engineering Hierarchy Of Mockery

The honeymoon phase with SolidWorks is shorter than most engineering relationships. First panel: pure innocence and optimism. "I love this program!" Second panel: blissful ignorance as you start designing. Third panel: the inevitable error messages that multiply faster than rabbits. Fourth panel: pure rage as your unsaved work vanishes into the digital void. This is why mechanical engineers have trust issues and energy drink addictions. The software isn't called "SolidWorks" because it works solidly—it's because it solidifies your decision to question your career choices.

The eternal struggle between theoretical physics and practical engineering captured in one brutal roast. The physicist spends years contemplating quarks and cosmic heat death while drowning in student debt and existential dread. Meanwhile, the engineer is out there approximating π=3 because "close enough," getting rich, and actually building stuff that works. Nothing says "academia vs. industry" quite like choosing between writing anxiously in pencil or confidently counting squares under a curve because integration is for nerds with too much time on their hands. The true irony? Both think they're better than the other while secretly wondering if they made the right career choice.

These graphs are the most scientifically accurate representation of college majors ever created! Liberal Arts: living the dream until graduation hits like a meteor extinction event. Medicine: suffering through the nine circles of med school hell before finally making enough money to pay off those student loans in your 50s. And Engineering? Just flatline suffering before and after graduation, but hey, at least the paycheck makes the existential dread tolerable! The universal constant across all STEM fields is that brief moment where you question all your life choices and wonder if you should've just opened that beachside coconut stand instead.

The eternal battle between form and function! On the left, we have architects throwing a tantrum because their gravity-defying glass origami masterpiece had to include *gasp* support beams. Meanwhile, the structural engineer sits calmly on the right, knowing that without their calculations, that "visionary" building would've been a pile of artistic rubble faster than you can say "load-bearing wall." Physics doesn't care about your aesthetic vision, darling! It's like trying to build a castle out of cotton candy and then getting mad at the person who points out it might melt in the rain. Gravity: the ultimate architecture critic since 4.5 billion BCE!

The engineering department has evolved into its own ecosystem! Behind the glass, we observe these magnificent creatures in their native environment - hunched over laptops, fueled by energy drinks, and displaying their characteristic aversion to social interaction. 😂 The warning sign is pure gold: "Please do not tap on glass or make eye contact with them as engineers are easily frightened by normal people." It's basically a human zoo where the inhabitants run on caffeine and cold pizza! Fun fact: Engineers actually develop a symbiotic relationship with their devices - the glow of screens has been shown to replace vitamin D in their bodies. Nature is truly amazing!

Engineering brilliance at its finest! 😂 The perfect representation of that classic engineering paradox - "To build X, first start with X." Dave's innovative megaphone solution perfectly captures how engineers solve problems in the field: just use the exact thing you're trying to create! It's like saying "to make a time machine, you'll need: some gears, a flux capacitor, and a time machine." Pure engineering genius that would make even MacGyver proud!
