Naked Algebra
The use of variables, equations, or inequalities to poke fun at the adulterous adventures of financially corrupt ex-presidents or ex-prime ministers, and of morally bankrupt priests or Pharisees, who continually deny having an affair with paid porn stars or Playboy models in spite of indisputable proof of hush money being involved to cover up their cheating habits.
A quick-and-dirty naked algebra question, which was censored by Floridian “woke math” educators, is the following: “Two b’s for $x + $130K + $y fine (and $z for possible bribery in exchange for a shorter stay behind bars). Guesstimate x, y, and z.”

TikTok Pi
The geeky talk du jour why mainland Chinese ByteDance’s beloved app is so addictive to millions of netizens worldwide is that its wicked algorithm unprovenly makes use of the digits of the irrational and transcendental number π.
Some team members behind the TikTok pi hypothesis were previously underpaid hackers from North Korea, Russia, and Iran—they’re poached by CCP headhunters, whose mission is to recruit raw or rogue foreign talents, who’d help make China great again.
Flirting
A dating equivalent of applying the trial-and-error strategy to hit a target as long as personal parameters or expectations are not unreasonable or unachievable.
TikTok Factor
When the US and the West find it hard to swallow the fact that a non-Western company or country has an unfair technological advantage over their local firms, which are often or mostly run by foreign talents, be it in terms of algorithmic supremacy, hacking superiority, or advanced security—one knee-jerk reaction is to ban their product on the pretext of mental health, privacy, and national security, or to force the foreign entity to sell its product to a local player.
Whether you’re in a developed or developing country, if you can’t compete with a foreign competitor, get your politicians to pass laws to limit or stop them from benefiting the population, by pointing out the negatives or potential risks of their products or services—let the TikTok factor be part of your strategy to neutralize the competition or the enemy.

Devillion
A layperson’s name for the number one followed by 666 zeros, 10⁶⁶⁶—a quantity that is hell-bent to prove itself to be of relevance or significance to mathematicians, metamathematicians, or theomaticians.
Meter
The distance light travels in 1/x of a second, where x is 299,792,458—the length is measured in terms of the speed of light (x m/s), which never changes.
Since one meter was defined to be 1/10,000,000 (or one over 10 million) the distance from the North Pole to the Equator in 1793, the meter had since undergone a few definitional changes before its present official definition was agreed in 1983.
