that's what the pinewood derby was like at my school. all the kids with engineer dads had the fastest cars. hmmmm i wonder why hmmmmmm
Engineering is hereditary
So that's why I can't get laid.
That's why your Dad and/or Mom couldn't get laid.
Their mom got laid at least, not sure about dad.
We don't know this for sure, maybe the dad just split in half.

You clearly don't know about mpreg yet
Is it open source?
Pretty sure the dad had something to do with it too, or it wouldn't be their dad.
Whoosh.
didn't realize Lamarck had a lemmy account
We got DESTROYED in pinewood derby one year when someone's engineer dad carved the body into a smooth, irregularly shaped U, with contoured weights. He said he used CAD software, did wind-tunnel tests, and used a special CNC machine to shape it.
Most kids were happy the wheels stayed on.
