Mechanical engineer

One so prone to metacognition as to overlook the obvious.

A Mechanical Engineer may design an escape from a labyrinth only to crash to the sea.

environmental engineer

An engineer who still has hope and wants to 'make a difference' but will later have his or her soul crushed in the process. Earns less than all the other engineers while trying to solve the world's problems. Synonymous with hippie.

Industrial Engineer

Industrial engineers are not engineers in the Traditional sense. They are the "Engineers" that real Engineers make fun of during break time. In University, while Electrical and Mechanical Engineers are busy doing hard work, Industrial Engineers typically occupy their time by planning Pizza Parties among other non-engineering related activities. Industrial engineers don't typically take as many math classes as the other engineers because they often say its to hard, they also say programing is hard.

Hello, I am an Industrial Engineer, I like to play with toys all day.

Afro Engineer

v. The opposite of nigger rigging. Taking a well working vehicle (car, SUV, motorcycle) and making it unable to perform to it's original specifications. The vehicle's new purpose is only to gain the attentions of every human within earshot. Vehicles which have been Afro Engineered can be characterized by their extraordinarily loud exhaust systems and/or stereo systems, have shiny over-sized wheels, and will be seen swerving. They are operated by individuals with little to no skill or insurance and the scent of alcohol and/or marijuana will be present.

1. Afro Engineer-ed Car: Putting 22" spinners, lambo doors, ultra dark tint windows, and an Alpine stereo in a Chrysler 300. Usually seen cruising 10-15 mph under the speed limit, smoke rolling out of the windows.

2. Afro Engineer-ed Motorcycle: A grossly extended swing arm, fat rear tyre, ground effects, and graffiti inspired paint job on a Suzuki Gixxer. Can no longer take turns property, but can go fast in a straight line, which matches the (lack of) skill level seen in the riders.

Extra points for a ho with a mini skirt, tank top, and 6" heels on the back.
