Tabloid Math

Juicy talks in mathematical circles on who are working on which projects or proofs, or who have been offered tenure, especially among the “office politicians” who were unprovenly promoted based on their close or intimate relationship with the boss rather than on their published papers and teaching awards.
Stabbing each other on the back, bitching about promoted or demoted fellow colleagues, and the like are part and parcel of tabloid math conversation, which preoccupies the minds of thousands of frustrated or marginalized mathematicians at lunchtime.

teflon

Coating on bullets so they can go through bulletproof vests, not to be mistaken for fryingpans.

The word teflon has changed into a word for bulletproof vest, so if you hear rap lyrics like " strap my teflon on" it does'nt mean he has put a fryingoan on.
