engine

think of an engine as a giant air pump. It gobbles up air from the atmosphere and dumps it into six cylinders. Inside each cylinder, the air is mixed with fuel that is sprayed in by the fuel injectors. The spark plug ignites, causing a small but powerful explosion. This explosion rapidly expands the air that is inside the cylinder, forcing the piston upwards. The piston is connected to the connecting rod which turns the crankshaft. The crankshaft spins and is connected to the transmission, driveshaft, rear differential, and finally, the rear axle and wheels.

Chickenhawk Engineer

A person works in the engineering field who discusses and debates the best way method to perform a given task, but then consciously avoids doing the actual work themselves.

"It is quite amusing how Mark got so heated in the arguement about how to architect that widget but then the next day he avoids actually performing the very tasks that he was describing" said Frank.

Max replies, "That is because he is a Chickenhawk Engineer. He will always get in arguements about how to solve a problem, but never gets involved in the actual work of implementing the solution."

egirl

A species of wannabe emo/goth girls that you can easily find on TikTok, Discord, Reddit, Twitch and Instagram. They usually have multi colored hair, stripped shirts, overly blushed nose, urban outfitters/hot topic t-shirt and large eyeliner. They pose in the most corny poses like guns to their head and glorify mental illness and suicide. They use BLM as their "cutesy GoTh HeLLo kiTTy aesthetic" and put it in their bio but always end up being the most racist pieces of shits. You can also find them on discord servers being a pick me girl to a bunch of misogynistic boys with a fake uwu voice, but they don't care about being degraded by those idiotic incels for their gender because of their "care free, like one of the boys/not like other girls" demeanor.

*a dumbass simp adds an egirl to the discord call*
Person 1: who is this girl with the ridiculously high voice and crazy blush you just added?
Person 2: It's an egirl

egirl

A girl who dresses mostly in black, probably skates, wears beanies, wears Vans, probably has depressing songs on her playlist and wears chains around their neck. Some are attention seeking girls and some are just trying to live their own life.

”Oh she has so many sad songs on her playlist. She must be an egirl”
”She is seeking attention through tik tok so she is probably an egirl”
