Never Confused

Usually meaning you are not confused about your sexuality, can be used as the ending to a sentence that you just realised made you sound a little homosexual.

From the Pub Landlord played by Al Murray in Time Gentlemen Please

"I was just curious, y'know, as to the mechanics of the whole business. What do they get up to? I was never confused!"

Genetic Engineering

Often misunderstood as a bad thing because of bad coverage in the press, it is in fact very useful. To engineer something you need to map an organism's DNA and then discover which genes have which effect. Then map another organism's DNA and implant those genes where you want the desired effect. It can be performed while a creature or plant is in it's embrionic stage, if done after there would be far too many DNA strands to alter. It could be used to create plants that would grow all year round in any county such as deserts without rain or even in antarctica and if there is water there, thoretically Mars.

"Genetic Engineering is a bad thing. I don't know what I'm talking about. I am an idiot."
Prince Charles.

GELF

Genetically Engineered Life Form. Gelfs are all that remain of humanity after we render ourselves extinct in the far future, but we leave cultures of mix-matched animals on terraformed planets. Created by Rob Grant and Doug Naylor in the TV show and books of Red Dwarf.

Lister: We've got to shake it. What's over there?
Kryten: Gelf Space.
Lister: It'll never follow us in there.
Rimmer: No because Glefs are untrustworthy dangerous savages, it would be insane.

Gun Shy

Millitary slang for someone scared of confronting the enemy. Like saying coward, only it's not irrational to be scared of red hot tumbling bullets that hit you before you even see the muzzle flash.

"Christ's sake Sarge, don't team me up with Billy, he's Gun Shy! Last time we saw an Iraqi he wet himself, and it was only a woman putting out her washing!"

Danger shave

The act of attempting to shave your testicles with a standard face razor. Difficult, pointless and dangerously easy to make a mistake. Also difficult to explain what you're doing if your mum walks in.

"I had to go to hospital yesterday, had a danger shave and my hand slipped. I got four stitches!"

"He's an ugly little spud isn't he?"
Ray Stanz, Ghostbusters.
