That’s not recommended

Engineer speak for “Do not fucking do that.”

Frequently in response to a phenomenally dumb question (usually by sales) or an absurdly improbable situation.

Meant to be derisive.

Sales: “What if we put the square peg in the round hole?”
Engineer: “That’s not recommended.”

Customer: “What if the lawn mower is still running when I stick my hand in?”
Engineer: “That’s not recommended.”
