The logical next target for the anti-science climate-change deniers and the anti-Vaxxers.
"Oh, so, Chris, you don't believe in climate change? You're anti-science, huh?"
"Global warming is a hoax."
"Well, when that doesn't work out for you, maybe you can become anti-math."

"Napkin math" is the act of performing estimates (usually of a financial nature) to roughly determine the feasibility or validity of an outcome or fact. It is usually performed in an informal setting.
Napkin is an allusion to the disposable nature of the information.
"I've done napkin math Dave, even if you get a $10k/year raise you still can't afford that mortgage".

The ecstasy that follows when you solve that really hard differential equation problem.
I just solved that Laplace Transform on page 86 and totally got a math boner!

A formula to ensure you (or whoever you are buying beer for) gets the drunkest for lowest amount of money:
"Beer Score" = (Beer Size x Beer ABV) / Price
Used to get the score of the beer you are drinking and to compare against other beer's score.
Pint of Guinness costs $5 at the bar... 16oz x 4.2 ABV / $5 = 13
Quart of Olde English costs $3 at the corner store... 32oz x 5.9 ABV / $3 = 63
So using Beer Math it takes 5x as much money to get drunk off Guinness at the bar than it does from OE in parking lot.

Mute Math is and indie/alternative/rock band from New Orleans, Lousiana and Springfield, Missouri. They were started in 2001 when a long distance collaboration suddenly clicked between Paul Meany and Darren King. With the recruiting of guitarist Greg Hill and bass player Roy-Mitchell Cordenas, Mute Math was formed.
They released their debut EP Reset on Teleprompt in September 2004. Their top hits include; Typical, Peculiar People, and Plan B.
They have made 2 albums so far; Flesh and Bones Electric Fun (Live), and Mute Math.
Guy 1: Dude did you go to the Mute Math concert last saturday at the superdome?
Guy 2: Hell yeah dude; it was sick, especially that Typical song.

Pioneered by Ken James (an engineering student at OSU), it is the ability to solve math and engineering problems without actually knowing how to do the problem. The technique involves ranking and ordering of numbers, canceling units, and other ninja like skills that enable you to at least approximate the correct answer, if not actually solve the problem.
Student: Damn! I can't do this.
Ken: It's answer "B"
Student: How do you know?
Ken: It's my mad ninja math skills. I can't explain how to do it because there is no real method, but if you know what to look for the answer just stands out.
