Grab Generation

Those who would conveniently or lazily order their meal via the Grab app even though they could easily step out of their house and walk a few meters away to have their breakfast, lunch, or dinner at a nearby food court or hawker center.
What would be the long-term health condition for the Grab generation, who rely on takeaways and practice zero exercise?

Pi Chart

A bar chart whose adjacent vertical bars have heights proportionately based on the digits of the decimal number π—from a distance, the statistical diagram looks like a city skyline.

Disinformation

The fake news that distract us through our personal devices, which we seldom stop to question, because of our impatience and laziness to think critically.
If American voters had known that all the disinformation on social media during the presidential campaign were fabricated thanks to Putin and gang to increase the odds of Donald Trump becoming President, the world wouldn’t have been so chaotic and pessimistic today.

Personalize John 3:16

When you declare the most quoted verse in the Bible upon your life: "For God so loved me or your name, He sent His only begotten Son to die on the cross for me or your name.”—when you personally experience His love in your life rather than merely reading or knowing about it.
Like the disciple John, who personalized the Lord's love for him by calling himself "the disciple whom Jesus loved,” you too could personalize John 3:16, so that His love is like a magnifying glass that focuses the heat from the sun over that blade of grass in a field to make it burn.

Covid Trump

The name a Trump “patriot” had given his baby to remind him that his illegitimate son was born on the day he nearly lost his life, when he took part in the January 6 insurrection to unsuccessfully help the ex-president be re-elected undemocratically.
Diehard Trumpists or alt-right white supremacists would show unwavering loyalty to their Insurrectionist-in-Chief, and christening their newborn “Covid Trump” is one such faithful act of allegiance to the “anointed” one.

Brexit Math

Also known as “Boris Math.” When hardcore math educators, most of whom are white supremacists or racists, object to using wallet-friendly, better-quality foreign math textbooks under the guise of protecting local authors and publishers, or are opposed to recruiting foreign math teachers and lecturers to teach in local schools and universities, because their presence unprovenly threatens the livelihoods of locals, who would find it hard to compete with cheaper foreign talents.
PM Johnson and his diehard supporters would fight hard to maintain Brexit math for nationalistic reasons, because any compromise to let in alien mathematical talent would be perceived as going against their Brexiteer principles—math and math education must be local, and not adulterated by foreign elements.

Creative Accounting

A quick way of getting promoted if you are an employee, or a relatively safe way of retiring prematurely if you are the employer, as long as you don’t get caught.
Unlike the negative image associated with creative accounting, other creative activities like creative writing and creative thinking are looked upon positively.
