idiot math

The calculus that goes on in the mind of an idiot that leads them to make bad decisions.
P1: "Wait, what possible reason could he have had to punch that cop? There's no possible permutation stemming from that that doesn't get him arrested, or possibly worse."
P2: "You're just not doing the idiot math here. Put yourself into the mindset of a 12th century peasant and you'll understand why he made the choice he did."
P1: "I still don't understand."
P2: "If he defeats the cop, then that guy can't tell him what to do anymore. He wins in his own mind, and that's all that's important."
P1: "Oh ok, I think I understand idiot math now."

Simcoe math

A neophyte's approach to understanding financial problems using calculations that may result in a wide +/- margin of error. Generally Simcoe math is used to broadly prove a point the user is trying to make, allowing a "rough estimate" to masquerade as a definitive answer.

Named after a region in Canada famous for being satisfied with results which may only have a tenuous connection to the truth.
"Guys—I'm just doing a bit of Simcoe math here on the back of this napkin, and it looks like we have just enough cash left for another round of Warthogs!"

Heavenly Math

How mathematics is used in cultural astronomy, such as in figuring out the date of Chinese New Year or the start date of Ramadan (the fasting month for Muslims)—both dates depend on the phase of the moon.
One unexpected draw to heavenly math is that it often draws arts and humanities students to discover the sciences behind astronomy, especially those who have an irrational fear of numbers.
