The academic publishing world's secret handshake: "et al." - Latin for "and I don't have enough space to acknowledge all the sleep-deprived grad students who actually did the work." The suggestion to replace it with "me and my homies" is pure genius! Imagine reading: "According to Einstein and my homies (2023), the quantum fluctuations indicate..." Would instantly make peer-reviewed literature 300% more entertaining and 100% more honest about research dynamics. Next proposal: replacing "significant findings" with "stuff that finally worked after 47 attempts."
