A mélange or rojak of the best math methodologies and pedagogies from the East and the West, which has given local students in the “fine” city of Singapore an asymmetric or unfair advantage over their peers overseas—when even their weaker students fare better than the global average.
Singapore Math has sprung up a cottage industry in math education, as millions of homeschoolers worldwide realized that wallet-friendly, brain-unfriendly math titles have helped their children hone their problem-solving skills.

Also known as the numerology of Taylor Swift, which revolves around the number 13. From Taylor’s birthdate to her flight from Tokyo to Super Bowl 58 (5 + 8 = 13)—a trip that would take her approximately 13 hours—to attend her 13th NFL game this season, which is taking place on February 11 (2 + 11 = 13) with the Kansas City Chiefs facing the San Francisco 49ers (4 + 9 = 13). Also, adding her ubiquitous 13 to her boyfriend Travis’s #87 Chiefs’ jersey yields the perfect score 100.
Swiftie math provides math teachers worldwide a golden opportunity to expose millions of oft-math-anxious students-Swifties to the pseudoscience of numbers.

When you respond to a 200 person hostage situation by mercilessly murdering over 7000 innocent civilians (mostly women and children)
This kid at school slapped me in the face today so I decided to apply a little Israeli maths and waited for him after school then broke every bone in his body, when his sister and friends came out I broke every bone in their body too. Totally served them up a little Israeli maths

A simple-minded homo-sapien who simply cannot comprehend the elegance and beauty of thy bathroom gods. The bathroom gods provide comfort, relief, privacy, and freedom, yet, the obstinate Math-hue deliberately tries to give them a bad name. It is THE present day Hitler; with it's army of Fridgzis, it plans to destroy mankind's most prominent species: the bath-hoomans. (You'll know you're in imminent danger when you hear the chant: "Hail Math-hue!" It will stop at nothing to eradicate the bathroom gods' noble and humble bath-hoomans, so it MUST be executed at all costs to prevent the genocide of the innocent bath-hooman species. So please, if you donate one penny per day, you can stop the dictatorship of the tyrannical Math-hue. It's the bath-hoomans' last hope.
"Humble and noble civilians of Bathroville, the Math-hue and his army of Fridgzis are making their way into our sacred shrine. We must stand together as a United Nation and stop them at all costs. Our existence and culture is in jeopardy now."
"Fubbernuck the Math-hue! It's an insane and tyrannical dictator; we must stand with the bath-hoomans and protect them against this calamitous and pernicious evil!"

Coined by Coach Greg Adams: - Excuses and Explanations by blue pill gumps, trying to defend matriarchy against factual statistics. It usually entails mental gymnastics and arithmetic to discount specific elements of statistics in order to prove a false, larger point that nothing untoward is going on.
Ramsey: The factual statistic is that 52% of marriages end in divorce. But, if you take out single mothers, people over 22, high school marriages, people with degrees, people earning less than $50,000, people who attend a house of worship, people who aren't from a divorced background; about 90% of marriages DO WORK.
CGA: that's Simp Math. you gump.
