Neditor

Short for “negative editor.” A “word doctor” who messes up a manuscript, by creating more work and headache for everyone else—he adds in more shit to an oft-shitty raw manuscript.
Dr. Smith gave up on his publisher after the management refused to change the neditor, who was assigned to his math project.

Weapons of Math Persuasion

The tools you need to get the most mathophobic student or adult not to give up on the most disliked school subject even if it appears that they were not born with the “mathematical gene.”
Pep talks, study tips, showers of praise, and no condemnation for failures are some common weapons of math persuasion successful teachers use to help students achieve a decent level of mathematical proficiency.

Mindful Math

Also known as “New Age Math.” When the buzzword “mindful” subliminally conveys the idea that one can master the most disliked school subject, by cultivating a relaxed mind for the brain to focus on what is required in a math question—a mind-over-math approach via meditation and relaxation to reduce fear and failure.
The math education industry hasn’t been spared by the Mindfulness Movement, which is promoting “Mindful Math” programs countrywide to target the math-anxious kids of the rich and the famous—they’re preaching the feel-good gospel that math success is more psychological than logical.

Fermat’s Last Theorem

Arguably the most notorious problem in the history of mathematics: mathematicians’ secret desire to solve it to achieve mathematical fame and immortality had saved a few lives, whose suicidal minds were so absorbed in their proofs that they forgot to end their lives prematurely.
A generalized version of the Pythagorean theorem, the Fermat’s Last Theorem was finally put to rest by Prof. Wiles, after an error was exposed in the first proof he unveiled to the mathematical brethren.

Jesus Is the Answer

A seemingly naive or simplistic solution to one's life problems that Jesus can make the impossible possible—a crazy idea to the cynical or skeptical nonbeliever.
Be it in health, relationships, career, or finances, one can expect a breakthrough if one believes that Jesus is more than willing to turn one's life around—this is why Jesus is the answer to all of one's life's problems.

Coke Bottle

A patented 3D glass structure that embodies both feminine curvature and phallic symbolism—its sensual shape makes it a collectible of choice among both lay and serious bottle collectors.
The Coke bottle is an American product that has conquered every country since 1915.

Santa Corona

The nickname for Father Christmas, who would have a pretty good excuse this year to deliver zero toys to brainwashed kids who believe their parents that the coronavirus is just another seasonal flu that would go away by year end, and that wearing a face mask and practicing social distance is for the weaklings who just want to be politically correct.
For kids of thousands of QAnonists and diehard alt-right Trumpists, Santa Corona would give them a miss in 2020 as a “punishment” for putting their faith in conspiracies and falsehoods, propagated by no other by the Conspiracist-in-Chief, who would probably need to be escorted out on 1/20/21 for refusing to make way for the President-Elect.
