Trickle Down Mathematics

A cute sounding phrase, which is 99.99% bullshit, that is used to justify the high royalties demanded by half-baked math authors in academia, or the high fees charged by most overrated textbook math consultants or general editors (who are notorious in giving cosmetic feedback to a manuscript).

Educational publishers in Singapore reluctantly give in to trickle down mathematics, hoping to increase the odds of their approved textbooks to be adopted by more local schools, by displaying as many PhDs on their book covers.

Corey Ott Mathematics

The style of math used when you multiply the answer by two and add one.

2+2=9

In regular form: 2+2=4

4 x 2=8

8 + 1=9

So, in Corey Ott Math, 2+2=9

spaghetti level mathematics

Math so bad it actually violates geneva convention.

1: "Yo bro how did the exams go?"
2: "I did some spaghetti level mathematics. Now the NSA is after me. RUN!"

kurt's mathematics centre

A gulag in Russia or a North Korean concentration camp.

I saw my friend at kurt's mathematics centre around 1 year ago
I haven't seen him since

Think you're smart? Have a big ego? Have a cocky attitude? Come to Kurt, He'll fix you!

Kurt's centre is actually a burial ground for all the kids he has hit with his metal ruler.

Can I have yo mathematics?

Another way of asking a person for their number. Based on the holla holla holla guy from dave chappelle's show.

Explanation of phrase: when one asks for another persons number they usually say it by "can i have your number?" or "I see that fine bootay of yo's, holla with them digits at meh why dontchya?" The reason we say "mathematics" is because a number is theoretically math, hence the term can i have yo mathematics?

Nala: Hey Simba... you look hawt!
Simba: say gurl, lemme holla holla holla atchya. can I have yo mathematics?

Aash: Dayummmnnnn look at calaia's bootayyyy!
Shivani: wa wa wee wah I WANT!
*both yell at calaia* say gurl! can i have yo mathematics?!?!??

Using Mathematical Equations to find out why the chicken crossed the road

1. (Idiom) Using a very complicated method or strategy when there is a simpler route that ends up with the same conclusion.

2. (Noun) A scientist in an insane asylum writing on the walls trying out figure out why the chicken crossed the road.

3. A question that has puzzled man for a very long time.

Ex:Using Mathematical Equations to find out why the chicken crossed the road

Lets see... The road is the variable y. x is the chicken...and w is the width of the road. Was the chicken hit by a car? Lets set that as variable q.

-46 Years Later-

Heh heh heh... So close to finishing!!! The chicken... crossed the road...because...

x=324897.453710599487105720982/23857105.3234 X 5^3489.245783-2433.452359157837598283994750175

y=45732658935/435 X 6^6.345722

w=2350701957303958.23095

q=23688.7853574545/534365645 X 235798^4364534577.3

He..he crossed the road... because...FFFUUUUUUUUCCCCCKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!

Who is THE Chicken? Who the fuck is he? Is he a fat chicken ? How fast was he going? (The scientist has now mentally gone insane)

Premalcastic Mathematics

Premalcastic is a type of mathematical language, which contains elements of; Differential Calculus , Quantum Logic and Probability Theory, Advanced Statistics (complex multivariate relationships), Abstract Algebra, and Mathematical psychology. the form of the notations is radically different to algebra or calculus, it resembles Mandarin (Chinese) and Arabic flowing top to bottom like Japanese writings but compressed together so it very tight. For a beginner it's extremely hard to read. It's primary application is to predict the exact outcome of any event, secondary is to solve highly complex mathematical problems. I will try to add an image of what the mathematic language looks like, to give a clearer idea.

I used Premalcastic Mathematics, to figure out that when that woman across the street picks up a pen someone dropped which will set off a series of events, that will result in a car crashing into this structure, causing that man on top to fall, exactly here on this very spot. So, I've placed this mattress exactly here, to save the man's life when he falls. Look the lady is picking up the pen, now. there goes the man exiting the store almost bumps into her, and the cyclist has to swerve to miss the man but bumps into the power line worker, who trips and knocks over a can of nails, that cause the car's tyre to pop, making the car swerve and hit the scaffold structure, where the man falls and lands on the mattress I just placed there a few minutes ago wasn’t that lucky.. No its not luck, it's mathematics. You just need to use Premalcastic Mathematics to solve the many possible outcomes, to determine that this is exactly where the man would fall.
