My fiancée and I were talking about this the other day, and the conclusion we reached was that our language, as it always has, is evolving, and these new phrases are just as valid as anything anyone has said before. People don't want to accept it, because they think of Internet memes as silly, and that's where a lot of this language comes from (there's also racism involved, because, of course there is), but it's too late. That's what English is now. Sucks to suck, fam.
To be fair, I think that's what the part after the colon was for.
Yeah this kind of casual title is very rare, and it's always just a small addition to an otherwise straightforward title. No one would allow for a purely cheeky title and no author would want one anyway. The first thing people use to judge the relevance of your paper is the title. If it's not immediately obvious what it's about, they're not going to look further. Immediately obvious for someone in a related field, anyway.
Tbf, it wouldn’t be hard to just have an LLM translate it for you.
I'll do you one better.
Not only is the language itself evolving, but we acquire more and more idioms and jargon as society moves through the industrial age. Right now, english has this playful mishmash of nautical, railroad, and now computing idioms reflecting each technological epoch's mark on speech over the last 200+ years.
