My tryst with machine design!

I've done my engineering in Mechanical Eng from a college in Bangalore.
This incident happened in first year whilst i was trying to learn Engineering Drawing.I guess most u guys will be able to relate wid it...

Engineering Drawing had become sumthin of a nightmare even before i had started off wid it thanks to our seniors who wud mutter stuff like... "Dude...Engg drawing... bettah watch out..!! "
so few of us decided to take drawing classes ( rather tuitons).
This prof was from our own coll... and he had a good reputation... so off we went..
1st day of class... we'r being taught Axes.
so this guy starts off...
class.. write down.. Engineering Draawing... BOXXX it.. VARRY important!
[MAn... the title is dat imp.. ok watever]
next.. date:xx/xx/20xx.. underline... VARRRRRRY important!!
[MAN MAN.. wat de hells happening!!!]
"ok.. so i've drawn two lines intersecting each other on the board called the AXES.
Now tell me.. thin or thick, thin or thick.. tell em i say...

[After a lot of thinking she says .. sir...THICK]
WrONG.. absolutely WRONg!!!
