Mask Wave

When people from high-risk countries that have been hit by more than one wave of Covid-19 are so paranoid or petrified that they would wear more than one face mask each time—for instance, two masks for a second wave, and three for a third wave.

As Covid-19 second wave hits Singapore, third wave sweeps Delhi, and fourth wave grips Hong Kong, first-world countries are worried that their local supply of masks might be hijacked by a mask wave, as some extreme citizens take extra-precautionary measures to avoid getting infected.

Urban Pi 

Irreverent or politically incorrect math definitions on and about the number π, most of which stand zero chance of ever being published in a school textbook, because they are deemed inappropriate or unsuitable to the immature or puritan mind, or to those with a poor sense of humor.

How could pi enthusiasts be deprived of a lexicon of urban pi terms or phrases just because some of them are allegedly blasphemous or irreligious or preposterous?

Pignant 

When a woman is approximately π months pregnant, or is slightly past her first trimester.

When asked by her nosy colleagues whether she’s expecting a baby, Alice geekily told them that she’s pignant, much to their confusion by what she meant.

Pie-in-the-Sky Pi 

When pure mathematicians dream that the elegant proofs of their π-related theorems would increase the chances of landing their names in the Mathematical Book of Life, or could propel them into mathematical immortality.

It’s an unspoken desire among Fields medalists—the mathematical equivalent of Nobel Prize winners in mathematics—and first-rate mathematicians to achieve pie-in-the-sky pi dreams.

Assroll

The last person to use the last piece of the toilet paper roll, with zero motivation to replace it, be it at home or in a public toilet.

Guesstimate the number of assrolls every day in the developed world, who expect their domestic workers at home, or toilet cleaners in public, to do the task for them.

Make Masks Mandatory Again 

The call by medical personnel to half-hearted pro-Trump politicians in a number of red states that have started to witness a rise in corona infection in spite of the fact that more people are continually being vaccinated—a “proof” that vaccination doesn’t prevent infection or reinfection, and that mask-wearing is a necessary irritation until the population achieves herd immunity.

Should “Make Masks Mandatory Again” be elevated or promoted to an official slogan to educate patriots and conspiracists that they’d still wear a mask in public squares, especially when it’s difficult to practice social distancing in a crowded space?

Truth or Trump 

The politically correct version of “Truth or Falsehood” among morally corrupt lawmakers, who are more afraid of man than God, or who are afraid of losing rather than doing their job; or among white blue-collar “evangelicals” or conspiracists who see the Liar-in-Chief or Pharisee-in-Chief as the “anointed” one to save them from the devil’s schemes.

In the “Truth or Trump” battle of conscience over the effort to investigate the January 6 Capitol insurrection, the score was: Trump 175 Truth 35—there were five times as many GOP members who voted to exonerate the Insurrectionist-in-Chief as those who voted to charge him.
