Trumpist

One who has a prejudice against any businessman-turned-politician and will shoot down any politically incorrect things he says.

A lot of people just can't stand filthy rich trumpists, and their discrimination against these "political opportunists" often blinds them from seeing the painful hard truths.

Meta

Facebook’s new corporate name with a blue infinity logo that appears to be a cosmetic attempt to divert attention away from negative stories plaguing the now-toxic brand, which has put “profits over people and safety”—the parent company that also owns Instagram and WhatsApp wants to go beyond social media into areas like virtual reality (VR).

Meta is to Facebook what Alphabet is to Google.

I Mask, Therefore I Am.

When tens of thousands of people worldwide suddenly realize their existence or mortality after wearing a face mask in public, because they are conscious or paranoid of their physical look for vanity reasons or otherwise.

Trump, who ridiculed his political rival for publicly donning a mask, narcissistically told his diehard supporters after he’s infected with the coronavirus, “I mask, therefore I am.”

Mask Constipation

When some selfish fellows or anti-maskers find it so hard to take out their face mask to wear it in public until they are threatened with a fine by the police if they refuse to do so.

Some unvaccinated religious zealots or diehard conspiracists would rather go to jail than pay a fine for refusing to don a mask in crowded places, which is a big concern for the authorities as these covidiots refuse to hear anything about mask constipation.

The Four “F” Words in Math

FEAR of not understanding the new math concepts.

FRUSTRATION in struggling to make sense of the concepts.

FATIGUE from mental stress and emotional pain in grasping the concepts.

FAILURE in mastering and applying the concepts.

Winners have not only banned the four-letter F-word from their vocabulary when faced with the most disliked school subject, but they have also refused to let the four “F” words in math rent a space in their minds.

Immoral Algebra

When a dishonest seller uses their finger or hand or some other means to tilt one side of a weighing balance to make the left and right sides of the scales look balanced to cheat the customer—a weight balance is often used as a metaphor for an algebraic equation.

God, the Great Mathematician, dislikes immoral algebra, but delights in accurate weights or honest scales.

Pi Crusade

When some Trumpublicans are prepared to accommodate the request of creationists or evangelicals turned Bible-literalists to legislate the value of π as 3 (in reference to 1 Kings 7:23 and 2 Chronicles 4:2 in the Bible) rather than the approximated 3.14, in exchange for their “holy votes.”

Like their Pharisee-in-Chief boss, who was hell-bent to carry out a pi crusade in a failed attempt to get re-elected, a number of morally bankrupt lawmakers would like to do likewise if tens of thousands of extra votes would swing in their favor to retain their seats.
