Mechanical Pride

Taking pride in doing something extraordinary with a tool or machine that isn't the best choice, only because of the fact that it's your tool/machine.

Mechanical Pride

Using your less desirable tool or machine for the job, only because of the fact that it's yours.
"When we get to Moab, let's rent a sweet Jeep to hit the trails with!" "No way. I've got too much mechanical pride for that. We're taking my stock, 94 Geo Tracker!"

Mechanically Totaled 

A term used to describe a car with mechanical problems that is not worth fixing because repairs will cost more than what the car is worth.
My Volvo needs a new engine for $15k but the car is only worth $10k. I’m junking it, it’s mechanically totaled

Mechanical Keyboard 

Large, typically loud keyboards that are surprisingly annoying due to the need to press giant keys extremely far down.
Subject A: I have a clicky mechanical keyboard! <proceeds to type the ever-living piss-shit out of the keyboard>
Subject B: <visibly annoyed> Linear membrane keyboards are better by far.

Mechanical Wings 

It's the pin you receive after eating a girl out so good that she morphs into Optimus Prime.
Shaun's Roommate's Friends: So is it just me? Or was Shaun eating out Optimus Prime last Night? Because I found this Mechanical Wings pin on the counter.

Shaun's Roomate: Bro. No yeah. Bro. It was a Woman. He Giant Debbed her so good, that she morphed into Optimus Prime. Her voice got all deep and she got way strong. Then then she turned into a freightliner and then she left.

Shaun's Roommate's Friend: Is his tongue made of the AllSpark? Because if so, I need to find a place to sit.
