"There is but little rain in Assyria. It it this which nourishes the roots of the corn; but it is irriagation that ripens the crop and brings grain to the fullness: it is not as in Egypt, where the river itself rises and floods the fields: in assyria they are waterd by hand and swinging beams. For the whole land of babylon, like Egypt is curt across by canals...There are no niether in the rest of Egypt, nor in the whole world, who gain from the soil with so little labour; they have not the toil of breaking up the land with the plough, nore hoeing...the river rises of itself, the water in the fields, and then sinks back again; thereupon each man sows his field sends swine into it to tread down the seed, and waits fr the harvest..." ~Dan MacGalvray

Civil Engineer

Someone who sucks at every other engineering, so they spend their life looking at parking lots and talking about cement. They are often mistaken for traffic cones. However they do like complaining about how hard their life is as an engineer. However, their course load is nothing like a true engineer. They are the bros of engineering.

Girl1: yeah he just mansplained what addition is to me. But then he did it wrong.

Post-Spacetime Civilization

Post-Spacetime Civilization is a name of a kind of civilization that managed to overcome the spacetime amd managed to exist beyond spacetime, literally becoming an extraphysical civilization. Post-spacetime civilization is a kind of extraphysical civilization, since it exists beyond spacetime and it managed to overcome the spacetime somehow, mainly by technology or by spirituality, and it exists at extraphysical level, both terms can be used to refer to extraphysical civilizations beyond spacetime, but post-spacetime civilizations managed to overcome spacetime, while extraphysical civilizations simply exist at extraphysical level.
"The concepts of post-spacetime civilization and extraphysical civilizations might be really useful in order to explain the existence of aliens and intelligent life beyond Earth as well, but it might take some time until those ideas become mainstream, together with extraphysical mechanics, bioextraphysics, psychoextraphysics, neuroextraphysics, extraphysicalism, post-spacetimeism, spiritualicism, deistology and ideas related to them."

Fun Civil War

A feud that divides a house of two or more roommates. One side is pro-fun and they act on their impulses. The other side is anti-fun and attempts to squander their efforts.
