Formerly the 45 mindset, the 4 to 5 mindset was adopted by IB students following the failure of a Mathematics AA HL assessment on the topic of complex numbers. The goal is to pass classes rather than aiming for perfection, in an attempt to maintain sanity and for self-preservation purposes
'Nah, I'm aiming for a 5.'
'What happened to the 45 mindset?'
'I failed my math. All I want now is to pass. Its the 4 to 5 mindset :('

An phrase that pseudo-intellectuals, brownnosers or sycophants use to elevate themselves intellectually to another by pretending they think or believe the same as they do when in fact so-called "great minds" set themselves apart from others because they really DON'T think like everyone else.
Intellectual: Since the 1950's, the whole of modern western civilization is based off of one driving concept - consumerism! It is the the reason for all the social ills of modern society. Despite the obvious advances in technology in medicine, agriculture, communications, engineering, and alternative energy we as a people are held back because the power rests in the few with the financial and political influence to keep money where is always has been. This rise in technology should be bettering the minds of the masses, but actually is made to anesthetize them and keep them complacent and lethargic.
Pseudo-intellectual: OMG!! Like...wow! I just said the same thing to my friends at the country club yesterday! I say you can get the same quality with Gucci that they get with Prada for less money. But nobody seems to listen. And...ya know...it sooo, like, frustrating? Great minds think alike, right?
Intellectual: *looks down his nose* You're not even in the same conversation.

A brand new epidemic of Manus has been discovered to be spreading around the globe via electronic devices such as cellular phones and other portable communication accessories.
The virus takes the form of an e-mail or text (SMS) message, and contains two deadly words: “Text” and “Manus” The message may also contain other words as well, trying to disguise its true form, but it still has the same effect no matter how many letters are displayed.
In order to get rid of the Text Manus, (Codenamed TM) you must forward the message in question onto another contact, then delete the original TM as soon as possible. The same rules apply as normal Manus, you are protected once you have passed the TM on, but if it falls into your hands, it has disastrous effects. The only difference between TM and palm-slapping Manus is that there is no way of blocking an incoming transmission
