This phrase is derived from the English slang word buggerance meaning something annoying, an untimely interruption or anything else that interferes with the smooth progress of work. It is used a lot in project management where it became necessary to allow additional time for these unforeseen and unforeseeable events. Where it was not possible to allow this time against a particular element of the project, a non-specific increase in time was allowed to cover these eventualities, this became known as the Buggerance Factor.
The Buggerance Factor is there to cover the extra time needed to rectify those things, which never ever go wrong, but invariably do if you fail to allow for them. It is usually added because of a sixth sense on the part of the project manager that something unexpected is going to happen and is the factor that allows for the law of project management that states Parkinson, Murphy and Sod are alive and well and working on your project. See also Malcolm’s Law.

That Heale Malcolm has managed to wangle his way on to the next project!
That fuckwit! We'd better increase the buggerance factor in that case.

Pronounced "sib-too-yah" it is the response when offered something of no value as an 'incentive'. An acronym standing for "Shove Your Brian Toy Up Your Arse", it came about as the result of a series of adverts on British television by different companies offering toys to people who would take out home or car insurance with them. These so-called incentives featured meerkats, a bulldog and finally after a series of particularly annoying adverts a toy robot called Brian. The company behind the adverts offered a free 'Brian Toy' to anyone who took out car insurance , home insurance with their organisation.
It demonstrates the contempt that marketing executives feel for the buying public if they imagine that this ridiculous ‘incentive’ is going to get everyone falling over themselves to do business with their company. Needless to say the 'Brian toy' was not the success that the company supposed, with the reaction of most people being "shove your Brian toy up your arse" which quickly became abbreviated to SYBTUYA. Very quickly, its use expanded to be the preferred response to anything worthless offered as an inducement or incentive.

Tom derives from Cockney Rhyming Slang and like so many other rhymes it has been shortened to just the initial word of the phrase e.g. bread and honey (money) became bread. However, unlike many others, Tom has multiple meanings which often can only be inferred from how it is used. Some of the common meanings of Tom are listed below:
1. Tom from Sir Thomas More = whore;
2. Tom from Tom Tit (old English name for a Blue Tit) = shit;
3. Tom from Tomfoolery = joolery (jewellery); incidentally don’t blame me for their pronunciation.
4. Tom from Tom Cat = twat/prat;

“That bloke is a real Tom (4). He gave a lot of tom(3) to a right old tom(1). Didn’t do ‘er no good, mind; it was a load of tom(2).”

This is an attitude and behaviour pattern which is demonstrated by certain females. It’s usually the ones who are narcissistic and who have an overrated opinion of their own intelligence, sense of fashion, taste in music and so on. They are so self-centred and egotistical that they apparently believe that the world revolves around them, and the only purpose of males is to gratify their every wish; you know the sort, the Kim Kardashians and Nicole Scherzingers of this world, stupid and unpleasant. They can be any age from six to ninety-six and many of their demands are petty, ridiculous and self-serving, such as the toilet seat must always be left down. Noel Coward must have been thinking of them when he wrote ‘Certain women should be struck regularly, like gongs.’ (Private Lives 1930). See also Barbara Cartland.
“Did you hear that? Crazy bitch wants me to take her to the theatre, followed by a meal at the most expensive restaurant and don’t forget to bring a dozen red roses! I only met the retarded slapper yesterday.”
