Pating is short for a pathetic person. The term was first used in the suburbs of Oslo and is now a widely used term. It's not quite as offensive as actually telling someone that they're a pathetic person, and is commonly used among friends when they do something stupid or short-minded. Pating may be shortened with a simple "P".
Example one:
To friends are walking down the street when suddenly one of them trips in his own laces.
Friend 1: Haha, you're such a pating!
Friend 2: Gaaaah, I know... I'm nothing more than a P...

Example 2:
You're walking down the street and suddenly see a dude with his pants stuffed in his tennis socks.

"Wow, that's a pating"

Just trying to see if you were paying attention 

Normally used by teachers to cover up when they make an idiotic mistake. By saying "Just trying to see if you were paying attention" teachers can make it seem like they meant to make their dumb mistake, when really they're just stupid...
Teacher: "On the test, we had over 5 FLAIRURES"

Student: "Don't you mean failures?"

Teacher: "NO, i was just trying to see if you were paying attention"

Student: "ah, of course"

paying homage to the porcelain goddess 

The ritual of getting on one's knees and discharging the smelly contents of the stomach into the toilet.
I was paying much homage to the porcelain goddess this morning because I drank too much of the Beast.

palinguistics 

the scientific study of a language derived from modern Alaskan.
I heard so many "you betchas" in Fargo at a recent Black Crowes show that I thought I was at a Palinguistics seminar.
