- You have no life – and you can PROVE it mathematically. Atleast we can prove it
- You enjoy pain. We can take it!
- You know vector calculus but you can’t remember how to do long division. Errr…true!!
- You chuckle whenever anyone says “centrifugal force”. Ofcourse! the fools hardly know anything about it!
- You’ve actually used every single function on your graphing calculator. Why not?!
- It is sunny and 70 degrees outside, and you are working on a computer. We ‘work’ unlike others who waste time!
- You think in “math“. LOGIC, baby!
- You’ve calculated that the World Series actually diverges. Not yet, maybe one day…
- You hesitate to look at something because you don’t want to break down its wave function. Ok, yeh zyada hogya
- You have a pet named after a scientist. Hate pets!
- You laugh at jokes about mathematicians. Better than sardar jokes
- You can translate English into Binary. Actually..I CAN!
- You can’t remember what’s behind the door in the engineering building which says “Exit“. Oops!
- You have to bring a jacket with you, in the middle of summer, because there’s a wind-chill factor in the lab. Hahaha
- You are completely addicted to caffeine. Sure am!
- You avoid doing anything because you don’t want to contribute to the eventual heat-death of the universe. Shutup!
- You consider ANY non-engineering course “easy“. Because they ARE!
- When your professor asks you where your homework is, you claim to have accidentally determined its momentum so precisely, that according to Heisenberg it could be anywhere in the universe. Good idea, never tried it though..
- The “fun” center of your brain has deteriorated from lack of use. Lame!
- You’ll assume that a “horse” is a “sphere” in order to make the math easier. Again, hadd hogayi!
- The blinking 12:00 on someone’s clock draws you in like a tractor beam to fix it. Yeah, because I can!
- You bring a computer manual / technical journal as vacation reading. Oh yeah, its interesting!
- You can’t help eavesdropping in computer stores… and correcting the salesperson. Because all sales people are a bunch of liars!
- You have any “Dilbert” comics displayed in your work area. Hmm..no!
- You have a habit of destroying things in order to see how they work. Isn’t that fun?
- You have never backed up your hard drive. Don’t even get me started!
- You haven’t bought any new underwear or socks for yourself since you got married. I’ll note that when time comes..
- You spent more on your calculator than on your wedding ring. Not applicable..
- Your favorite James Bond character is “Q,” the guy who makes the gadgets. LOL!
- You understood more than five of these jokes. All of ‘em!
- You make a copy of this list, and post it on your door (or your web page/blog !)
I found these interesting points about engineers on a website which I’m reproducing here with my own comments in italics on some of them.
You’re and engineer if:

Waisay :

I realized after reading that, so got excited
Exactly how do you intend to translate English into Binary? ASCII codes na hona shart hai!
You’ll assume that a “horse” is a “sphere” in order to make the math easier. Again, hadd hogayi! — Ellipse would be better…
You have a habit of destroying things in order to see how they work. Isn’t that fun? — It is fun…
You have never backed up your hard drive. Don’t even get me started! — Exactly…
@SAWJ: ASCII codes to yaad hain
and looks like u had a haircut!
@Talha: LoL @ ellipse, i think only engineers laugh at these jokes
LoL! Kuch points mein to waqayi hadh ho gayi… but yeah… can relate to quite a lot of it =D
i think we should give some credits to doctors….they do work..
I liked that idea of horse as a sphere
sorry eclipse…
i just looked at the dp of this post….man i loved that tattoo…kia baat ha cha giya ha banda jis nay yeh ha banaya
