These engineering and science tech-centric
jokes, song parodies, anecdotes and assorted humor have been collected from friends
and websites across the Internet. I check back occasionally for new fodder, but
it seems all the old content is reappearing all over (like this is). The humor is
light-hearted and clean and sometimes slightly assaultive to the easily-offended,
so you are forewarned. It is all workplace-safe.
Humor #1,
#2, #3
How's this for a great anagram?
International Microwave Symposium = Comparatively Winsome Ruminations, or maybe
Unwise Improvisational Commentary
I came up with that today when noting that
IMS 2020 Virtual Event begins today.
An anagram, BTW, is a word or words created from the letters of another word
or words. Some results are very descriptive of the original subject (Western Union
= No Wire Unsent and The Morse Code = Here Come Dots), but the best are results
that mock (New York Times = Monkeys Write) or suggest the opposite of the original.
Here's another: Electrical Engineer = Career Intelligence.
There are many anagram finders out there, including
AnagramMaker.com, which is the one I used
to find my International Microwave Symposium anagram.
Over the years, I have searched the WWW for anagrams and posted many on the following
two pages. Here is a new batch found in today's effort. It is usually impossible
to determine the true origin of things like this since they are repeated all over
the Internet. Of course I claim ownership of the IMS and EE anagram, so if it pops
up somewhere else without attribution, it is premeditated theft.
