Murphy's Law of Engine-Idling Duration

"If you leave your vehicle's engine running during a delay in proceeding (traffic-jam, road construction, accident-resolution, "stuck" red signal-light, etc.), you will be sitting there for many minutes, just wasting gas. The instant you turn the key off and climb out of your seat to stretch, however, THAT'S when the line of traffic will begin moving again, and thus you will have shut off your engine "for nothing", AND you will now be holding up everyone behind you while you hastily hop back into the driver's seat and re-start the engine so that you can move forward again."

I finally took da plunge and bought a second-hand Toyota Prius because I'd eventually had one too many cases of Murphy's Law of Engine-Idling Duration... the Prius automatically shuts down its power during stand-stills, and then uses its electric motor to provide instant mobility as soon as you're ready to go again.

Midnight Engineer

To engineer at night. A person who services people during the lightless hours of the day. A prostitute.

That girl we passed on the bus was rather shapely and walked in a distinctive manner. However, she had the essence of a midnight engineer.

without knowledge in engineering

Building or constructing something without having thought it through comme du monde

If you try building something like an electronic chair in your basement, without knowledge in engineering, just a friendly caveat : not only are you slicing the pineapple, the result may be Frankenstein

human factors engineering

i) the process and effects of intentionally playing on a persons attributes to achieve a goal, either directly or indirectly.

I didnt want Amy going out with Mark, but i knew she was planning to go out with him on friday, so i relied on Jenny's gossip mouth by telling her best friend Cathy that Mark had VD. She told everyone else and Amy went out with me instead. Ingenious human factors engineering
