Engineers often find humor in their work, especially when it comes to the complexities of mathematics. This piece explores the light-hearted side of engineers as they joke about mathematicians and delve into the Secant Formula and its applications in assessing the structural integrity of pin-ended compression members. We also highlight the importance of safety factors—where, despite the simplicity of 2 plus 2 equals 4, engineers might humorously round it up to 5 for safety. Examples, such as the collapse of the Second Narrows Bridge in Vancouver, illustrate the critical balance between humor and engineering precision.
