The Only Joke I Cracked After Graduation

Engineering confidence is the biggest scam of all time! You walk in thinking "Pfft, I've built IKEA furniture without the instructions, how hard can this be?" Then suddenly you're staring at differential equations that might as well be ancient hieroglyphics! 😂 The transition from "I'll understand whatever it is" to "There's nothing about this I understand" happens faster than the speed of light - which, ironically, you'd learn to calculate in the class you're failing!

The father-son conversation takes a hilariously dark turn when Dad explains his daughter was named after Venice where Mom "stayed for a long time." The son says thanks, and Dad responds with "No problem, ENGINEERING" – revealing he named his son after what he was doing when the kid was conceived. Classic engineer humor – solving the naming problem with brutal efficiency while completely missing social boundaries. At least he didn't name him "Conference Room Table" or "Back Seat of Toyota Corolla."

The eternal struggle between Tesla and Edison perfectly captured in classroom form. Tesla, the brilliant introvert who mumbled groundbreaking ideas about alternating current, while Edison, the business-savvy extrovert, simply shouted Tesla's ideas louder and got the credit. Some scientific rivalries never die, they just get recycled into meme format. The historical equivalent of writing your name on someone else's lab report.

Engineers: "We made the world's smallest computer! Smaller than a grain of rice!" Mathematicians: *points at epsilon* "Hold my infinitesimals." The race to miniaturization never ends! While engineers celebrate microscopic computers, mathematicians are over here using the epsilon symbol (ε) which represents infinitely small values. In calculus, epsilon is basically the mathematical way of saying "as tiny as you need it to be, and then even smaller." Talk about winning the size competition on a technicality!

Engineers round it up to 2 because "close enough for the bridge to probably stay up." Statisticians approximate it to 1.7 because decimals are just suggestions. Physicists calculate it to 1.73205 and still worry they missed something. But mathematicians? They're sitting there with a maniacal grin because √3 doesn't need to be anything else. It's a perfect, irrational beauty existing exactly as it is. No approximations. No compromises. Just pure, undiluted mathematical truth that makes them giggle with deranged joy. It's like watching someone fall in love with an abstract concept while everyone else is just trying to get practical results!

The God of Thunder meets electrical engineering. Each component's symbol perfectly matches Thor's hammer transformations - resistors oppose current flow (stubborn like Thor), inductors store energy in magnetic fields (worthy of Mjolnir's power), capacitors store electrical charge (like Thor bottling lightning), and transistors control current flow between terminals (the most complex hammer, for when Thor needs precision). Circuit designers silently appreciate this while soldering at 2AM, running on nothing but cold coffee and the warm glow of their oscilloscope.
