In the ability to hold their liquor.

In which category is the butt of more jokes.

Aggie jokes aside, it appears to me to be about even. Add Aggie jokes to the mix and engineers win hands-down with regard to who is the butt of more jokes.

(Like berkeman, I too love these joke threads)

Where does a physicist lag behind a engineer or vice versa? :)

In a plaster wall after the engineer has drilled a 1-1/8" hole and inserted a lead anchor.

LIES AND CONJECTURE GOOD SIR!

I challenge thee to uphold thy statement in the ancient art of beer swilling.

Under the assumption that you are an engineer

"lag" bolt?

Walked right into that one didn't he?

Great thread.

I'd accept, but I see by your profile that you are not only a Physicist, but Irish. I humbly walk away from that competition.

But I'm only part Irish (the other part is mainly German )...

There is also the issue of 3000 miles, 2 mountain ranges, and convincing my wife to let me swill beer in Cali to uphold the honor of my noble profession...

Though maybe a virtual competition...

 

[berkeman]

Though maybe a virtual competition...

I'm too skeered.

Still, tomorrow night is New Year's Eve.

If you ever want to finish a project you have have to kill the engineer.

If you ever want to start it, you have to kill the physicist.
