Writing Reports

Source: Engineering Subject Centre


Perhaps not quite an anecdote but if you're short of One-Liners for your student reports you could do worse than look to these examples taken from US Military OERs (Officer Efficiency Report)

  • Not the sharpest knife in the drawer
  • Got into the gene pool while the lifeguard wasn't watching
  • A room temperature IQ
  • A prime candidate for natural deselection
  • Bright as Alaska in December
  • Gates are down, the lights are flashing, but the train isn't coming
  • So dense, light bends around him
  • If brains were taxed, he'd get a rebate
  • If he were any more stupid, he'd have to be watered twice a week
  • Wheel is turning, but the hamster is dead
