www

Short for whole wide world.

In wrting to avoid spelling out the cliche. Can also be used in speaking as www is known and in this case we get a subtle variation on the original www - the internet thing.

The apocollapse is coming and it's gonna go destroy the www - yeah, the whole wide world, the world wide web, and all. Take care, you read it here, first.

rural myth

A false rumour that entrenched as truth in poor rural-majority countries

In Egypt farmers believe a hot-air balloon that lands on their field brings good luck. They would, wouldn't they - it brings them instant compensation from the balloon owner. It's a contrived rural myth to disguise their greed. So for rural myth read rural math, you know, as opposed to urban math.
