Vaccine Hypocrisy

When a country blamed other nations for using their own state-funded vaccines to expand their political and economic influence across the world, and now it is doing the same thing, by promising to donate millions of vaccine doses to developing nations to make up for its geopolitical losses, which arose due to fake political leadership.
To counter China’s and Russia’s vaccine diplomacy in the developing world, the US has succumbed to vaccine hypocrisy, as it plans to donate half a billion Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine doses globally as a desperate attempt to resurrect its comatose leadership on the world stage.

Bar Model Method

A problem-solving visualization heuristic that is the heart of the Singapore math curriculum, whose copyright is being contested by both China and Russia (or even Japan), because they claimed that the “look-see” methodology used to solve challenging word problems in elementary grades originated from them.
In the aftermath of the Singapore’s claim that they and the Canadian songwriter Hugh Harrison own the copyright to the “Count on Me, Singapore” song rather than the Indian composer Joseph Mendoza, China and Russia now want Singapore to compensate them for “plagiarizing” the bar model method for over three decades—unprovenly, it’s their tit-for-tat message to high-GDP Singapore for not approving their home-made, half-baked vaccines.

Pi Brexit

When math teachers in a school or state can’t see eye to eye on the degree of accuracy the number π should be given in a math question—for example, should the students be asked to take π to be 22/7 or 3.14?
In the aftermath of the “Pi Brexit” war, a red state in the US has recorded at least a dozen resignations from hardcore evangelical math teachers, who refuse to bulge unless the schools agree to use the biblical value of three for π.

Corona Pride and Prejudice

When some corrupt countries boast about their homegrown oft-half-baked coronavirus vaccines, which even the locals are reluctant or refuse to take, because they were approved while they were still being trialed among a questionable number of human guinea pigs.
Even as China, India, and Russia are keen to offer their vaccines free of charge, or sell them at a lower price, to a number of developing countries, millions of their citizens whose leaders bragged about their “cheap-and-cheat” vaccines are guilty of corona pride and prejudice.

Trumpvirus’s Infectivity

The rate at which Donald J. Trump’s conspiracies and lies about fraudulent ballots brainwashes his oft-gullible hardcore supporters to donate to the post-election fund to "protect the results and keep fighting even after Election Day.”
Trumpvirus’s infectivity incited both Trumpists and QAnonists to contribute tens of millions of dollars, which could be used to settle part of the president’s bigly debt and to finance his own political rallies, especially if he’s running again in 2024 (assuming that he’s not behind bars by then).

Bat

A term used by oft-racist Asians to label a black person who is notorious to curry favor with the bosses, to backstab others, or to play office politics to get ahead of their peers.
Just as some racists angrily call contemptible or dishonest members of the black community snakes and ghosts, others call them bats and skunks.

Dealighted

Overjoyed at the mind-blowing or wallet-friendly deals and promotions that are on offer at supermarkets or shopping malls.
Mrs. Jones has ever been so dealighted before that she’s so far sent no fewer than 500 SMSes to relatives and friends informing them about the sexy offers.
