Educational Mercantilism

The concept that there is a finite amount of education in a given environment, so that there is a benefit to depriving others of a quality education in order to increase the benefits to themselves.
The reason why there is little to no effort to improve failing public school systems is because those in power believe in Educational Mercantilism, and having the best education for their child means that education needs to be better than those of others.

Educated Fuckboy

An educated fuckboy is a guy who claims to not be like "other guys". They are convincing because of the intelligent way they communicate, but in reality they are exactly like those "other guys".
I'm not a fuckboy. I'm on Tinder mainly to find someone I can vibe with. I'm not looking for a serious relationship. I'm looking for something casual.

*This is a typical response of an educated fuckboy*

Educational Sin

Educational Sin refers to the act of knowingly committing wrongdoing in a school setting (usually high school and college.) The first signs of Educational Sin are procrastination by nature, and more commonly referred to as "senioritis."

Educational Sin is knowing that you have work to do and deciding to do anything but the work you need to do. It is not limited to only seniors, for it can affect everyone at all levels of their educational career. It's very similar to procrastination, but there's a deep cutting away at the good educational soul that is nearly nonexistent by the end of your institutionalized education. Educational institutions are the cause of this and also contribute to a lack of imagination and creativity.
Tom: Hey, I'm going a kickback tonight wanna come?

Gabe: No thanks I have finals next week and should study. You have finals next week too, shouldn't you be studying?

Tom: Yeah, ... but ... I have been committing educational sins so often this quarter that I'm basically going to fail all my classes. I might not even show up for exam day. It would be a waste of time for me to go anyway.

Educational Quotient

Secret Societies and other groups sometimes use an "EQ" when communicating in many forms. The embedding of pre-determined information helps members to enrich, shorten, and encrypt a story in seemingly normal conversation.
He will take you down for sure sister. Look at the car he drives. For sure to be a bonafide "Lady in Red".

I guess you are right. Is that another an Educational Quotient from the movie we watched a while back? Kind of like taking the Red or Blue pill I guess.
