1: omg Collien Fernandes is so hot
2: she was engineered in Germany, what can u expect?
1: ...that's the gayest thing u've ever said.

Unicronical Engineering

The discipline of engineering devoted to the creation and maintenance of planet devouring transforming robots.
"What type of Eng are you in Steve?"
"Unicronical Engineering"
"Why's that?"
"Well, I mean, if I wanted to be a pussy, I GUESS I could go into mechanical, but I'm not."

electrical engineering

The art of mastering imaginary numbers and theoretical concepts that never actually work in practice. Then applying these idealistic numbers and concepts, followed by messing with the components until the desired result is achieved.
During her co-op, the electrical engineering student pretended to understand why the low pass filter worked properly.

"I made it up. Some people call that imagination, I call it electrical engineering" - Dave, EE

"Electrical Engineering is basically ME*(CE)^2" - Albert Einstein

Aerospace Engineering

Space, the final frontier, for these rocket raping masters of flight and fucking, the speed of light comes close to the level of badass-ness behind the brains of these technical fucking geniuses. Rocket science at it's best.
Hot girl: hey, whats your major?

Aerospace guy: aerospace engineering baby

hot girl: <sound of panties dropping>

redneck engineering

The use of unorthodox methods and tools to build, modify or repair machinery, vehicles, etc, usually with little regard to finesse or technique.

Common tools include: sledgehammers, cutting torches, arc welders, come-alongs, jacks, porta-power kits, large prybars, sawzalls, lengths of pipe and 2 X 4s

So named for the stereotypical redneck who fixes things through brute force and duct tape.
The popular TV shows Monster Garage and Junkyard Wars often feature great masterpieces of redneck engineering

Russian Engineering

Attempting to get electronic or mechanical parts to work by physical force or violence. i.e. kicking, smashing, hacking, bludgeoning.
Craig took his T.V and kicked it a couple times in order to 'coerce' it into working. Like communism, the damn thing still refused to work. In a fit of ingenuity, he decided to use Russian Engineering, so he lit his T.V. on fire and smashed the bloody thing into an electronic pulp while dancing manically around it.

human engineering problem

a case where the real challenge is to modify or control human behavior rather than design a technological solution. Sometimes used sarcastically (by techies) to imply that a problem is not due to technological deficiencies, but to the fact that humans are so poorly designed.
We know how to produce enough food to feed the world. Eliminating hunger is primarily a human engineering problem.
