THIS is why I dropped out of engineering

Actually, the reason I dropped out was because I failed out, ranked 430th out of 431 in my class. #431, wherever you are, I owe you a beer!

  • Not even sex can compare with the satisfaction of solving a second order differential equation representing a particularly nasty RLC circuit by hand...

    I can't even type that with a straight face.

  • Damn... they lied to us about what "integration" meant... and I was looking forward to triple integrals...

  • Integration seems to have entirely different emotional meaning to the profs than it does to students. I swear my calc prof quivered the first time we did triple integrals... and he was positively giddy when we started spherical coordinates.

  • Wait, so if I have sex I can't be an engineer?

    I didn't know the entry requirements were so strict!

    Thats what the habits are for! Hiding slide rulers!
