Or he needed shoes for a “friend.”
And although I appreciate their cracked sense of humor, certain punsters are so set in their ways there’s just no curing them.
Well, nothing set in stone.
Yeah, and replying to them just reinforces their behavior.
The pun pain… I feel mortary wounded.
I just knew he couldn’t stop at pic-a-nic baskets. 
I’m trying to figure a way to sneak ‘rebar’ into a sentence, and failing. I think my pun license has been revoked.
Steel yourself, you’re just temporarily stucco’ed; try mixing things up mentally for a bit and pour over something else for a few minutes. Some problems just need some air. Then, return to the original site in its aggregate and see if inspiration strikes. Relax; this happens to all of us.

Damn, there would be nothing cooler than a high speed chase of a cement mixer. I can just see the helicopters following a cement mixer barreling down the highway, its mixer rotating cheerfully, just crashing through everything in its way.
uncivil engineers?
One of my favorite novels has a great line in it about a particular group of people not being mad scientsts just irritated engineers [they had created a device that they thought would close a wormhole permanenntly and block access to and from a particular panet forever]
Un civil engineers hmm, I suspect they are just prestressed .
