redneck engineering

The use of unorthodox methods and tools to build, modify or repair machinery, vehicles, etc, usually with little regard to finesse or technique.

Common tools include: sledgehammers, cutting torches, arc welders, come-alongs, jacks, porta-power kits, large prybars, sawzalls, lengths of pipe and 2 X 4s

So named for the stereotypical redneck who fixes things through brute force and duct tape.

Russian Engineering

Attempting to get electronic or mechanical parts to work by physical force or violence. i.e. kicking, smashing, hacking, bludgeoning.
Craig took his T.V and kicked it a couple times in order to 'coerce' it into working. Like communism, the damn thing still refused to work. In a fit of ingenuity, he decided to use Russian Engineering, so he lit his T.V. on fire and smashed the bloody thing into an electronic pulp while dancing manically around it.

Mari (Eugene)

A Mari also known as a Eugene or a neckbeard is a socially awkward boy who struggles to pick up girls and engage in any form of social interactions. Anyone who happens to come across a Mari will definitely recognise them as a autistic weirdo who has a bent broken spine. If a Mari is extremely lucky to acquire a female he will be forced to hug his female because he is so afraid of ending her life with his vicious, razor-sharp, clubbed nails. When a Mari gets his first girlfriend she will break up with him a day before Valentine’s Day making the Mari cry on his bed eating the Chocolate he bought for his ex. An easy way to spot a Mari is by their clubbed, sharp nails, his terrible attire and his atrocious body stench.
Oh shit it’s Mari (Eugene) beware of his nails he could kill you.
