The Three E's Of Passing The Buck

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!

The eternal divide between engineers and physicists in one perfect image! Engineers happily round π to 3 and Euler's number to 3 because hey, close enough for practical applications. Meanwhile, physicists are looking at them like they just committed a mathematical war crime. The horror on that physicist's face is every pure mathematician's soul leaving their body when someone says "eh, just round it."

Electrical Engineering students know the true horror of circuit analysis. When your professor casually asks you to "just apply Kirchhoff's Law" and then presents you with what appears to be a summoning circle for the ancient god of tangled wires and burnt resistors. Nothing says "I've made a terrible career choice" quite like staring at mystical runes when you expected a simple RLC circuit. At this point, you're not solving for voltage—you're solving for which demon to sacrifice your GPA to.

The engineering job market duality on full display! On Reddit, engineers are desperately sending applications into the void. Meanwhile, on Twitter (now X), engineers are basically the DIY gods who build impossible-sounding devices from scraps and actively reject job offers. The "transducing combobulator" is the cherry on top - a completely made-up device that sounds just technical enough to be believable to non-engineers. It's the engineering equivalent of saying "I rerouted the quantum flux capacitor through the hyperspace manifold." Pure technobabble that somehow still impresses recruiters!

Finally, a troll physics meme that actually obeys the laws of thermodynamics. The classic troll face is suggesting a perpetual motion machine that... actually works? Extract solar energy, use it, then radiate waste heat back to space - congratulations, you've just invented sustainable energy. The punchline is that we're literally doing this already with solar panels. Conservation of energy remains undefeated, but at least we're using the giant fusion reactor 93 million miles away instead of burning dinosaur juice.

Two types of physicists in their natural habitat! On one side, we've got the pragmatic engineer with their trusty lookup tables going "brrrrr" like a money printer. On the other, the theoretical purist insisting on deriving EVERYTHING from first principles like some mathematical masochist. The pencil tip perfectly represents that theoretical physicist's ego—sharp, precise, and ready to poke holes in your approximations. Meanwhile, the lookup table folks are just trying to get stuff done before the grant money runs out!
