Trig Is King

Engineering drawings with thumbs-up and hand gesture dimensions? Welcome to the world where "about yay big" is now an ISO standard! The drawing hilariously replaces precise measurements with hand gestures – because nothing says professional engineering like measuring a critical component with "roughly this wide" 👍 and "about that tall" 🤏. Next time your professor demands exact calculations, just submit a blueprint with "kinda circular" and "sorta rectangular" annotations. Works 60% of the time, every time!

The engineering joke that separates the nerds from the normies! While most people know RPM as "revolutions per minute," the French have a delightful linguistic quirk where they call it "tours par minute" (TPM). Non-English speakers get it immediately, but everyone else is left staring blankly like Toothless the dragon. It's basically the STEM version of an inside joke that makes engineers snicker while the rest of us pretend to understand. Next time someone mentions RPM, just nod knowingly and mutter "ah, oui, les tours..."

The engineering gender ratio has achieved its final form! This meme brilliantly captures the progressive stages of brain expansion as we descend deeper into the engineering vortex. Starting with normal social awkwardness (never been kissed), we quickly escalate to complete social isolation, until we reach the ultimate transcendence of aerospace engineering—where one's consciousness expands beyond the need for human interaction entirely! The gender imbalance in engineering fields isn't just a stereotype—it's practically a law of thermodynamics at this point. Aerospace engineers have ascended so far beyond normal social constructs they're basically designing rockets in the 5th dimension while the rest of us are still trying to figure out how to say "hello" to another human being!

When your entropy approaches zero, so does your sex life. Chemical engineers understand that disorder is essential for interesting reactions. Statistically speaking, a perfectly ordered system leaves no room for... spontaneity.

The entire global economy rests on a mathematical quirk! That giant dam labeled "Bad Actors" is preventing catastrophic flooding—and the only thing holding it together is the difficulty of factoring large numbers into primes. This is literally how modern encryption works! Your bank account, crypto wallets, and national security secrets are all protected by the simple fact that multiplying two huge prime numbers is easy, but working backward to figure out which primes were multiplied is computationally nightmarish. If someone cracks this mathematical problem (looking at you, quantum computers), our digital fortress crumbles faster than my motivation during grant application season.

Behold the sacred translation guide for the mysterious species known as engineers ! What normal humans call "I hit it and it worked," engineers dignify as "percussive maintenance." That's just fancy talk for "I smacked it real good!" The classic "turn it off and on again" becomes the impressively technical "cycle power to the panel." And my personal favorite—"I forgot to plug it in" transforms into "high impedance air-gap." Because why admit you're forgetful when you can sound like you've mastered quantum physics? Engineers don't just get electrocuted—they experience "organic grounding." They don't melt things—those things undergo "thermal reconfiguration." And explosions? Please, that's "kinetic disassembly," thank you very much! This shirt is basically the Rosetta Stone for understanding why your engineer friend can't just say "it's broken" like a normal person!
