And this, my friends, is why I'm not an engineer...

Steve Praz said...

@Jmac: Agreed.

I don't really know what to say.

JMac said...

This post is also proof that engineers have terrible spelling.

Alex said...

They only ever thought us to get the point across, not to spell. You get the point.

JMac said...

^That's taught, pal, not "thought".

Alex though we be at war, even enemies have common grounds. Flawless.

This is a great chart and, although hilarious, not to far off, especially the part about culinary arts majors. The only question I have is: When did an engineer find time to do something unrelated to schoolwork?

Alex said...

I got bored while working at the lab... had some free time... got inspired by some of the flow charts I was working on, and made one.

Unknown said...

This chart is hysterical, but cleverly done. Kudos to you, Alex. =)

Alex forgot to add that if you answered "no" on the "Engineering major?" question, the response is "Just ask her already, you don't need to go any further."

Christopher said...

This is incredibly hilarious. What was that comment about business majors? Are you saying we can't be in relationships?

Unknown said...

Don't worry, Chris, although the loophole does not exist in the flowchart, an exception has been made for you. =)

You forgot to add, if you are a history/english major with the name willy you have the gift of singleness/celibacy.

Getting date with that girl if she does not know you exist...

Look up all the information she has on Facebook, Girls like it when you take an interest in them.

Randomly talk about the things that she is interested in when she is around and act surprised when you have the same interests.

Look her friends up on FB and also appear interested in what they are interested.

If she also goes to Cov Fel wait until you are to busy with school to start your courtship. That way you can break it off because of school.

Look at FB pictures of her to find out her eye color and wait to comment on her wearing a shirt that matches her eyes.

If you are an engineer she will be impressed that you were able to for a coherent sentence so that will only help your odds.

speaking from personal experience - it may be wise to know her eye color.... *cough* fall retreat *cough*

Nice Chart Alex, but what do I do when all the girls are asking me into a courtship?

Right now I just pretend that I can't hear them and tell them that they mumble a lot.
