Pi in the Pandemic

When the number π tries to keep herself fresh in the mind’s eye of mathematicians and math educators, by getting involved in the christening of new words and phrases, such as “piralysis,” “Covid-π,” and “pi in the sky”; or by letting her and other pi expressions being redefined with new meanings, often associated with Covid-19 or its variants.
Like the top billionaires who became wealthier during the coronavirus crisis, thanks to Urban Dictionary, pi in the pandemic was productive in producing a few dozen new pi-words and phrases to keep the mathematical brethren in some quasi-aha! mood in the midst of fear and pain.

Tower User

A power user of toilet paper in a family, who selfishly expects the other members to replace the last roll each time, when they should be the one to do this dirty job at home.
Tally is the tower user who notoriously uses the last toilet roll until there are barely any sheets left for her family members to wipe their backsides.

Covid-91

The spiritual antidote to being protected from Covid-19—with reference to Psalm 91 in the Bible, which believers faithfully use as an effective prayer of protection against any plague or pestilence that confronts them.
Christians know that Covid-91 is no match to any man-made antibodies or vaccines in protecting them against Covid-19, because whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty, and that He is their refuge and their fortress and will save them from any deadly pestilence.

The Weak-end Effect

When you are mentally stressed and physically exhausted, because you can’t think and move, preferring to lie down to rest your out-of-shape body, while constantly worrying how you are going to meet those ridiculous deadlines come Monday.
Jessie sought counselling because she’s suffering from the weak-end effect—she wants to take back her 48 hours for herself and for her family, instead of letting her job take a toll on what used to be her free time—the weekend.

Immoral Vaccination

When high-income countries with high vaccination rates would almost have to beg or coax their citizens to get their third booster shots rather than giving or selling their surplus or hoarded vaccines to developing nations, where the people long to get jabbed.
Nations guilty of immoral vaccination only agree to donate their near-expiry vaccines to desperate pro-Western developing countries, or decide to practice “dose sharing” with another developed country that has a low vaccination rate and a low supply of Western vaccines.

Marijuana Math

The use of marijuana or illegal drugs as a means of relaxation, or as an outlet for creativity, among the best brains in academia to crack those fiendish math problems.
It’s a common sight to see that a number of first-rate mathematicians are heavy smokers, especially when they need a break from their half-baked proofs; however, less commonly known is that the more daring ones would consider marijuana math, hoping for an aha! experience in the process.

Trump-sense

A biologically inherited but atrophied sense that allows some born with an average or below-average IQ and EQ to punch above their weight cognitively, by lying and scheming their way to only survive but also thrive in life, without getting caught, fined, and jailed for their unethical and immoral lifestyle.
Don has resurrected this trump-sense in him, which had enabled him to become the most powerful man in the world even for just “serving” one term in office.
