energy systems engineer

The energy systems engineer is an elusive breed of engineer. Often found scurrying around the forest grounds on the banks of the River Corrib, the energy systems engineer will not take very lightly the fact that you are tainting their environment with your carbon dioxide emitting ways. They have a weakness for white wine and tacos and can be captured using a butterfly net.

"Derek! I think I have just seen the lesser spotted energy systems engineer in it's natural habitat!"
"Jolly good, William, but what is that curious sound it is making?"
"It is difficult to hear, Derek, but it sounds like it is hashtagging Longford."

without knowledge in engineering

without having thought things through comme du monde

if you are going to build an electric chair in your basement, please don't do so without knowledge in engineering!

Theusen's Engineers

Engineers, a flask of poison, and a radioactive source are placed in a sealed all-hands meeting. If an internal monitor detects radioactivity (i.e., a single atom decaying), the flask is shattered, releasing the poison that kills the engineers.

The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics implies that after a while, the engineers are simultaneously alive and dead.

The last meeting we were in made me feel like we were Theusen's Engineers.

Building or constructing something without having thought it through comme du monde

If you try building something like an electronic chair in your basement, without knowledge in engineering, just a friendly caveat : not only are you slicing the pineapple, the result may be Frankenstein

Startling the engine

A phrase used in the mechanics world for turning on an engine and turning it off in under a second.

Stop startling the engine you'll ruin the starter!!
