Political Mask

When the wearing of a face mask has turned into a divisive political issue in a number of countries that protect their citizens’ individual rights, whose selfish behaviors in donning zero masks in public in the midst of a pandemic crisis endanger the health of the majority.
Alt-right politicians are pushing their political mask agenda, by pretending to address the anti-social demands of a noisy minority to win their votes.

Covid-🦃

When desperately needed foreign workers trained to slaughter and process turkeys reared for Christmas are not allowed in the country unless they serve their 14-day quarantine on arrival, whose absence would affect producers with low supply and consumers with high price.
Thanks to Covid-🦃, a lucky percentage of the nine million turkeys in the UK would have their lives spared during this 2020 Christmas period.

Rapture-Ready

When churchgoers stop being pew-warmers and start winning souls for Jesus—when every born-again Christian (living and dead) will be snatched away to heaven on Christ’s Second Coming, leaving lukewarm believers behind.
Because not every believer or churchgoer is saved, Christians need to be rapture-ready to avoid being under the rule of the evil dictator, who will force everybody on earth to be marked with the number of the Beast.

Pilot

The equivalent of a bus driver in the sky, who earns a much higher salary because of the apparently higher risk of their passengers not reaching their destination safely.
Just as a stewardess is an overpaid waitress, a pilot is an overpaid coach driver.

Decovidized Air

Manufactured oxygen boosted with antibacterial agents that promises to kill all coronaviruses and their variants, which might serve as a natural substitute to constantly wearing a face mask and annually being jabbed one or twice a year.
In case this decovidized air thing really works, Joe decided to order a few tanks from Alibaba—doesn’t it look like finally some snake oil salesmen have brought in some fresh air in the field of creative marketing, especially in the midst of a pandemic?

Tabloid Math

Juicy talks in mathematical circles on who are working on which projects or proofs, or who have been offered tenure, especially among the “office politicians” who were unprovenly promoted based on their close or intimate relationship with the boss rather than on their published papers and teaching awards.
Stabbing each other on the back, bitching about promoted or demoted fellow colleagues, and the like are part and parcel of tabloid math conversation, which preoccupies the minds of thousands of frustrated or marginalized mathematicians at lunchtime.

Stop the TS

Short for “Stop the Trumpshit.” When thousands of Trumpists of all stripes—conservatives, Republican senators, right-wing and far-right groups, and conspiracists—descended on Washington, DC to protest the results of the 2020 presidential election—unfortunately, their president had zero time for them, who was playing golf while they were protesting for him.
As the world watches pro-Trump events like “Stop the Steal” and “Million MAGA March,” they just want to tell the noisy minority of deluded and disappointed protesters, “Stop the TS” and “Don’t let Trump’s dirty feet walk through your mind.”
