Mechanicsburg

A small town in central Pennsylvania. Populated by cows, hicks , and the occasional failed writer. The kind of place you drive through once and you have seen it all. Contains: an art store covering for drug trafficking, one good coffee shop (Juice n Java) and a plethora of townies . An exceedingly boring place. Oh, and they have some lovely era architecture, except you can count on it to be decrepit and unkempt.
Notable people in Mechanicsburg are: the man who walks around with a parrot named "Merlin" on his shoulder, a man who takes pictures of everyone and gives them out to strangers on the street, and an unidentified person who rubs Vaseline on their butt and presses it against storefronts at night, leaving greasy buttprints. I wish I was joking.
If you ever get the chance to visit Mechanicsburg, don't. Seriously.
Alice: Look, a hobo biting off the heads of various small animals!
Matt: I didn't know we were driving through Mechanicsburg.

quantum mechanics

A theory that developed from Max Planck's quantum principle and Werner Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

The quantum principle states that waves (light, infrared, X rays, etc.) are emitted from any body in "packets" known as quanta, rather than arbitrarily. Each quantum would have more energy depending on the frequency of the waves.

The uncertainty principle states that the more accurately you know the position of a particle, the less accurately you can know its velocity, and vice versa.

Heisenberg, Erwin Schrodinger, and Paul Dirac created a theory called quantum mechanics, which was based on the uncertainty principle. Particles were now thought to have a quantum state, a combination of position and velocity.

In a nutshell, it brought randomness into physics, which many physicists (Einstein, for example) objected. Still, many others accepted it.
Even after reading all that, does anyone actually understand what quantum mechanics is?

Quantum mechanics is complicated.

Mechanical Engineer

Badass Mother Fuckers that are way under paid unless they move to a big city.
Scott (new hire): Is that a bum over there?
Andy (plant manager): No!, lol, That is our Mechanical Engineer, I barely pay him to design all of our badass equipment. He looks like a bum because he is still paying for his $50K education and can barely afford to make his house payment. Not to mention that President NoBama has his head shoved up his own ass!
