Mathematical Asylum

When people apply to become permanent residents or citizens of another country, because they continually face job discrimination from both local and foreign employers, or from their own elitist government—the good jobs are given to those who were born or blessed with the “mathematical gene.”
Like millions of asylum seekers from developing countries and theocratic states, who fear discrimination for being gay or a woman in their country of origin, what are the chances that in a-not-too-distant future, math-anxious or mathematically challenged folks might also apply for mathematical asylum to live in some anti-multicultural or anti-woke societies?

DJ Mathematics

A genius of the sick beats and the turntables that produce them.
Her beats are so fresh, she sells them at the Sunday market.
She emits strange growling sounds when angry, and is best known for her trademark 'fingers-in-the-air' victory dance.
Isa: Hey, whats that growling noise?

Dan: I think it's DJ Mathematics

Isa: It sounds like a raccoon

DJ Mathematics: rrrrooooo

Useless gibberish of an answer to a math question that somehow ends up with the right answer.

Mathematical Heresy

The myth that you can do (almost) everything with math, or that being good at math or logic is a secure ticket to financial freedom, which is absolute bull if you look at the millions of exam-smart or geeky people who love math and have excelled in the subject, yet could hardly make ends meet.
Let not mathematical heresy blind you, because your love for numbers and their relationships more often than not doesn’t pay the bills nor guarantee you a decent job.

Alcohol Mathematics

The equation used by a drunk person trying to figure the effects of the next few drinks
Using alcohol mathematics is a simple formula;

"I've had eight beers now and I feel really good ..... so if I have have another eight beers I'll feel TWICE as good!"

It gets worse when combined with a work day, figure this;

(I've used USA names in keeping with the American flavour)

Dirk; Hey, it's 2am .... don't you have a presentation to the board at 9
T-Bone; Yeah, but I figure I'm going to drink till 6, have a shower and breakfast, then write the presentation between 6:15 and 7:30, and that gives me an hour and a half to get to work by the public transport system (note the responsibility shown) and finish rehearsing on the train
Dirk; Boy, T-Bone, that multi-million dollar contract is in the bag .... another double bourbon?
