- SCP-5488 (?)
- SCP-5488 is a set of eight special stickers that look like movie rating labels. When one of these stickers is placed on any kind of media, like a movie, book, or video game, the content of that media instantly changes to match the rating on the sticker. For example, a family-friendly movie could become extremely violent or explicit, or a children's book could have crude language added. These changes immediately go away once the sticker is removed. The stickers themselves are very durable and never lose their stickiness. They are kept locked in a fire-proof safe, and only certain authorized personnel are allowed to interact with them.
- Physics envy (?)
- The term "physics envy" criticizes academics in "softer sciences" like economics, sociology, and psychology for overusing complex jargon and mathematics to appear as rigorous as natural sciences like physics. This phenomenon stems from the remarkable success of physics in applying mathematical precision to its fundamental concepts, leading scholars in other fields to sometimes adopt an artificial complexity to their work. The Sokal affair, a scholarly hoax, highlighted this issue by questioning the intellectual rigor of certain social science journals that published intentionally obscure papers.
