O.o;;;

Then again, I did say that Life of Brian wasn't the funniest of the Monty Python movies >_>

And as far as the screenplay goes, it comes with every copy of the Holy Grail Collector's Edition

Re: "You Might Be an Engineer If..."
 

NNNOOOO! The title will be mine! Mark my words...Brian will be usurped!

And here, I thought that my time with FIRST competitions expired :p

Oh lord, bless thou holy hand grenade, and thou with it shall we blow our enemies to bits, an thou messy. And the lord did grin, and the people did cheer, and feast upon the lamb.....


Good ol' Monty Python

Re: "You Might Be an Engineer If..."
 

...and sloths and carp and anchovies and orang-utangs and breakfast cereals and fruit bats...

anyways, I think now would be a good time to go back on topic...

Re: "You Might Be an Engineer If..."
 

...And the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then, lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.'

Amen, Amen,

Right,

One, Two,.....

(no i did not cheat i was watched it earlier)

anyway to go back to the topic, I printed out SciGuy's list, of engineering traits. I shared it with a few friends, many of whom broke out in laughter so hard they had to take a walk. The most commone response i got was, "This is too true"

Re: "You Might Be an Engineer If..."
 

can i add one here?

...if you're redesigning a super toilet with your best friend for the science fair. (using CAD, of course)

Re: "You Might Be an Engineer If..."
 

Another one for the list:

...if you only read the instructions after you finish the project, if then.
