Coronatrumped

When you are being lied to that the coronavirus is just another flu that would go away by Easter or Christmas, or that mask-wearing or social distancing is optional unless you want to be politically correct.

Ann felt coronatrumped by her boyfriend, who told her that no one could really be infected by casual kissing.

Q-tistics

Short for “QAnon Statistics.” The conspiracy that the corona infections and deaths statistics in the US have been concocted or inflated to make Donald J. Trump look awfully untruthful and inept in managing the pandemic crisis.

President Trump claimed that “Only 6% people actually died of Covid-19,” “99% of coronavirus cases are “totally harmless,” and “US’s Covid-19 mortality rate is the lowest in the world.” Aren’t these examples of Q-tistics?

2🦠2🦠 MATH

When the mathematical education of millions of students in developing countries, who don’t have access to a computer or the internet, were hard hit by the lockdowns, which forced the authorities to postpone the national exams to 2021—a painful reality that exposes the wide inequality gap between the haves and the have-nots.

With new waves of the coronavirus pandemic currently sweeping many parts of the developed world, how much would 2🦠2🦠 math students be affected in the new year, especially when they’re not likely to be vaccinated before their counterparts in the West?

Putin the Great

The unofficial title conferred by millions of mainland Chinese netizens on Dictator Vladimir Putin for waging a war against the US and its allies via Ukraine, which are afraid of China’s economic and military rise and the world order (or disorder) it would create—Chinese jingoists view him as “the greatest strategist” of the 21st century, who would help deliver resources-rich developing nations from American hegemony and hypocrisy.

Pro-Russia, pro-Putin, and pro-war Chinese online users, particularly the so-called “little pinks,” see President Putin as a demigod or political savior—it’s no surprise that these diehard pro-Xi fans call him “Putin the Great.”

Covidead-19

When the number of people in a country or city who suffer their last heartbeat due to the coronavirus on a given day is exactly nineteen.

Superstitious gamblers in some Asian countries morbidly think that 1919 is a “lucky” 4D number if they witness a Covidead-19 tragedy.

Covid-bellied

Those who had unhealthily put on some extra pounds during the coronavirus outbreak, as they stayed at home snacking junk food, smoking cannabis, or swallowing wine or alcohol to kill time.

Guesstimate how many millions of people worldwide had ended up being Covid-bellied since they were forced into quarantine or lockdown.

Twonager

A toddler who leverages on their young age and radical selfishness to terrorize or blackmail their parents and grandparents to give in to their demands or wants.

Twonagers born with a silver spoon in their mouth are like little Donald J. Trump’s or Kim Jong-Un’s, with a small percentage of them never outgrowing that phase of their life to become lifelong jerks or assholes.
