Academic Sludge

1. Unnecessary or useless busy work from university requirements.

2. Work related to something useful but is too high in volume.

3. Useless "academic" or "journalistic" writings, such as:
"What pronouns for Pepper? A Critical Review of Gender/ing in Research" by Katie Seaborn.

"Why climate change is inherently racist" by Jeremy Williams
1. "Why are you in Mongolian throat singing? I thought you were an engineer; isn't that just academic sludge?" "The university requires five art credits to graduate."

2. "Bro, are you done with the homework for Chemistry? The Prof gave us an entire Packet with 50 questions!" "Yes, but at that point, it's just academic sludge."

3. "Did you finish annotating the English excerpt about racist mountain names?" "No, I'm not reading that academic sludge"

Academical

Derogatory term to describe an Engineer or upper Management. It can also be used to describe their proposed solution.

as an adjective -- insufferably obtuse
as a noun -- an un-entertaining charlatan

It is normally told to an Engineer, sometimes upper Management by either an Inspector or Construction Trash Contractor. It is intended to imply the person has no real world experience and only theoretical understanding of how to do a job. It is a professional and eloquent way of calling someone “A stupid mother fucker who has no real world experience.” It is especially amusing when it goes over the persons head and they are oblivious to the major fucking insult you gave them. It is also used to imply that although their book says it is theoretically possible. Real world experienced people know there is no way in fucking hell it will work or it is completely unnecessary. You are astounded at their unprecedented level of stupidity and their lack of experience is shockingly apparent. They refuse to listen to your opinion because you do not have a degree like them and they look down on you even though you graduated from the school of hard knocks. You reluctantly agree to do it their way because you have front row seats to the fucking colossal shit that is about to unfold or you are making a lot of money doing unnecessary work. You do dread hearing the workers relentlessly bitch about how fucking stupid of an idea it or or how much of a fucking waist of time it is to do that.
This is Jimbo, he is an acadamical engineer.

Person A: This is how the book says you need to do this job.

Person B: We will do the job how you want although that step is academical.

Person A: I do not understand how it does not fit. It is built to the drawings.

Person B: The drawings are academic. You are not taking the fact that you are trying to hard pipe 45 connections with no flex to a header.

academic zone

When someone you're talking to doesn't want to be friends, just academic acquaintances. This is a downgrade from the friendzone.
Person 1: Hey, is Sally going to be joining us on our beach trip?
Person 2: No, she said she'd rather just do homework with me instead.
Person 2 is in the academic zone.

Academic Tantrum

The urge to respond to something completely wrong with a 500 word referenced essay.
Annoying sign: The government hit you with a 25% tax increase on your cigarettes. How much more can they take from you?

You: Gah! Academic Tantrum time!

*pulls out health references and starts to write response, ignoring half finished study, then gets all passive aggressive and makes a post on Urban Dictionary."
