Guy 1: How many beers have I got?
Guy 2: You've got 2. You drunk 2
Guy 1: But I had 4
Guy 2: I know. you drank 2, and you've got 2 left
Guy 1: So there's 2 empty ones left, and 2 unempty ones?
Guy 2: What the hell is unempty?
Guy 3: XD I fucking love beer mathematics

The act of masturbaiting while looking at numbers. You can do this during math class, maybe while doing some math homework.
Joe: yo, what's nick doing?
Kevin: oh he's just mathematically masturbaiting. He's just trying to get that problem solved.. If ya know what I'm saying ;)

The atheistic viewpoint that numbers and geometric shapes don’t exist but are man-made—they are mere human constructs or abstractions that are often used as imperfect tools to make sense of the physical universe, be it for modeling or predicting purposes.
No one has control over numbers outside of their minds; no one can draw a perfect circle or square; solving all those oft-impractical word problems at best shows a certain degree of algorithmic or algebraic proficiency. Are these limitations, imperfections, or formulations mere instances of mathematical nihilism?

A math educator who approaches a question or problem from a new angle, by not thinking outside the box, but throwing out the box entirely, to increase their chances of experiencing an aha!
Be it trying to think about a wicked problem from a rogue leader’s viewpoint (like Trump, Putin, or Kim) and see what pops up; or self-imposing a set of rules and a time limit to focus on the issue; or reading the Bible and praying in the Spirit, is what some mathematical weirdos would playfully do to tackle their problem.

When people apply to become permanent residents or citizens of another country, because they continually face job discrimination from both local and foreign employers, or from their own elitist government—the good jobs are given to those who were born or blessed with the “mathematical gene.”
Like millions of asylum seekers from developing countries and theocratic states, who fear discrimination for being gay or a woman in their country of origin, what are the chances that in a-not-too-distant future, math-anxious or mathematically challenged folks might also apply for mathematical asylum to live in some anti-multicultural or anti-woke societies?

A genius of the sick beats and the turntables that produce them.
Her beats are so fresh, she sells them at the Sunday market.
She emits strange growling sounds when angry, and is best known for her trademark 'fingers-in-the-air' victory dance.

Isa: Hey, whats that growling noise?
Dan: I think it's DJ Mathematics
Isa: It sounds like a raccoon
DJ Mathematics: rrrrooooo

One day in a week when you abstain from any mathematical activity—no preparing, no problem solving or posing, no marking—to give the left part of your brain a day off, while inviting the right part to take over.
Your mathematical sabbath could prove to be the most productive day of the week, as you let your logical mind recover and reenergize from a hectic week.
