It is associated with basic/rough figures traditionally done on the back of a beer coaster at a pub while drinking.
An example might be mates working out the cost of a fishing trip, so "Fuel will be about $100, bait about $50, accom about $200 and good about $200". So rough/approximate figures.

According to my beer coaster maths, it would be about $500. But if you want a more accurate number I'd obviously have to look it up, speak to the suppliers etc.

Get the Beer coaster mathsmug. Forgetting even basic arithmetic when forced to calculate in public. A situation usually exacerbated by the lack of a calculator or presence of authorities on the subject.
John had to explain his reasoning in Econ class and managed to triple the price in the example. Math in public gets real fast

Get the Mathmug. Nobody will ever truly understand it. It is most certainly something teachers give us because they hate us, no matter what they say. Math is pretty pointless now that we all have smart devices to do it for us. Math is a form of torture for the young minded. Don't hangout with people who like math, because they are probably a psycho serial killer.
Person 1: Yo did you here Max? He said he loves math!
Person 2: Dude stay away from him. He's probably some sort of psycho serial killer or something.
