Have you ever been to a party with a bunch of mechanical engineers? It's like being in a room full of walking, talking instruction manuals. The social awkwardness is off the charts. They're all standing in a corner, debating the optimal angle to approach the snack table. Meanwhile, the rest of us are just trying to figure out if we should grab the guacamole or the queso.
I tried to break the ice by telling a joke, and they all just stared at me like I'd just violated the laws of physics. I guess humor is not in their equation. I finally got a laugh when I said, "Why did the mechanical engineer go to therapy? Because he had too many issues!" They chuckled, but I'm pretty sure they were calculating the actual number of issues.
Dating a mechanical engineer is like being in a constant state of disassembly and reassembly. Everything is a project. I once asked my mechanical engineer partner to fix the squeaky door, and next thing I know, we have blueprints and a timeline for door renovation. I just wanted WD-40, not a blueprint for a door that doubles as a secret entrance to Narnia.
And don't get me started on romantic gestures. Flowers? No, they'll design a 3D-printed bouquet. Candlelit dinner? Nah, they'll create a mechanical contraption that lights candles in a perfectly synchronized sequence. It's like being in a relationship with Tony Stark, minus the Iron Man suit.
You ever notice how mechanical engineers are the only people who can turn a simple cup of coffee into a NASA-level project? I mean, I just want a caffeine boost, not a dissertation on fluid dynamics. I asked my mechanical engineer friend to make me a cup of coffee, and he starts explaining the thermodynamics of the water-heating element. Dude, it's Monday morning, not a TED talk!
And don't even get me started on those fancy coffee makers they design. I feel like I need a PhD just to operate the thing. It has more buttons than a spaceship! I just want a cup of Joe, not a lesson in advanced robotics. You know your coffee maker is too complicated when even Siri gives up trying to explain it.
I tried to impress my mechanical engineer friend by assembling some furniture from a well-known Swedish store. I thought, "How hard could it be?" Little did I know, he showed up with a toolbox that could rival a small hardware store. He starts inspecting the pieces like a detective at a crime scene.
As I'm struggling with the instructions, he casually mentions, "You know, I once optimized the assembly process for a car engine in half the time it took the factory workers." Great, but can you help me with this Allen wrench? I swear, by the time we finished, I felt like I'd earned a degree in furniture engineering. Next time, I'm just buying pre-assembled.
