A pop cultural term for counting in base 8, because each character in the Simpson family was born with four fingers on each hand, which means they would count like this: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, …, such that all eight-fingered members could do without the symbols 8 or 9.
In Simpsons math, “If Homer and Marge and their four kids looked at two spiders, how would they write and pronounce the total number of their legs?” 20 and “two-zero” rather than “twenty.”

Math is basically a class that you have to take. The teacher is usually near illiterate and hates the kid that proves them wrong. They also have an accent and would be behind schedule before school started.

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.

When someone’s worth as a person in society is often defined by their grade in school math, which means that the odds of their securing a promising career or future look bleak if they were not born with the “mathematical gene” or didn’t have a silver-spoon upbringing.
Guesstimate how many millions of otherwise intelligent people worldwide have their dreams dashed every year, because the course they plan to study in college requires them to have a passing grade in math or statistics or calculus—in other words, what percentage of the world’s population has been unfairly or unjustifiably been masked by math?

When math learning goes beyond learning facts, figures, and applications; instead, math is humanized so that it is allowed to convey beauty, values, truth, justice, play, and love—when mathematical thinking is viewed as a way of life.
Teachers should present math as a verb, not as a noun—when students should be encouraged to be active players, not mere spectators.
