Samurai Math

Shortcuts that short-circuit hours of learning and practicing formal or traditional problem-solving methods to solving certain types of math problems.
Instead of spending hundreds of hours mastering the basics of school algebra, mature students or working adults with no formal education could be taught some quick-and-kill Samurai math methods, such as the Sakamoto method and the Stack Model Method.

WaspsApp

When middle-class white Protestants use WhatsApp to fellowship with each other and pray for each other.
WaspsApp serves as an extension to the church life to remind believers that they are not to live like Sunday Christians, who are often no different from unbelievers on weekdays.

Thailand

The land of military coups, with army generals protecting the aristocracy and the wealthy in Bangkok, when the rich and powerful feel threatened by political parties that support the farmers and villagers.
Thailand has the world's most number of temples, but it's usually its sex industry and beautiful beaches that attract budget-conscious tourists to this land of a thousand smiles.

#BuyTwitter #BanTrump

The hashtags used to raise money to buy Twitter in order to shut down President Trump's Twitter account, because his tweets arguably promote bigotry, hate, and violence.
Some billionaires in China (and even some anti-Trump governments) are keen to be part of the #BuyTwitter #BanTrump campaign, because they want to hit back at the 911 president, before his administration imposes economic sanctions against their protectionist practices.

Make Singapore Free Again

The slogan the Opposition in Singapore fearfully want to use so that citizens and residents can criticize the authorities, or could stage public protests, without the risk of being arrested or sued.
The “fear factor” among Singaporeans to speak up and to speak out has numbed them and made them politically indifferent—with lawsuits against political critics on the rise in recent years, the Opposition’s promise to make Singapore free again is just a dream for now.
