PAP
Singaporean party abbreviation
Pap is soft, bland food suitable for infants or invalids—mashed or semi-liquid nourishment requiring no chewing.
By extension, pap describes any intellectual or artistic material that's insipid and lacks substance: The studio keeps churning out pap for the masses.
Separately, pap is informal or dialectal for father, and in medical contexts refers to a Pap smear—a cervical cancer screening test named for its developer, George Papanicolaou.
