Prevision

Noun; compound of prefix 'pre' and noun 'revision'.
A form of panicked revision which takes place in the days and hours before an exam. Good old-fashioned revision becomes prevision when the "revisor" comes across a completely unfamiliar topic their teacher has neglected to mention prior to this point. Hence the student is not revising -revisiting- a subject but frantically trying to learn and revise it all at once.

Verb; To Previse.

1.The night before her maths GCSE Bethany was astounded to find that the Factor Theorem was part of the syllabus. As she was unaware such a Theorem even existed she filled twelve sleepless hours with frantic prevision, which culminated in her sending an abusive email to her maths teacher.

2. Martin: Surely you knew the Baddeley and Godden study would be in the exam?
Beth: If I had I would have prevised it, fool!

Preview Beers

The beers that preview the premiere event. Preview beers are for those desk jockey corporate monkeys that have made it to Friday and willing to spend $7 on a local IPA because they “earned it”. Those that start the night with preview beers are often found ordering a round of bottom-shelf boozy beverages or indulging in free pizza just as closing time strikes. Preview Beer aficionados are privy to leaving the cheap stuff for after hours when their taste buds have dulled and confidence has skyrocketed. Their legacy will be forever immortalized in the walk of shame the following morning to recover a credit card and a tab that has yet to be closed.

J.T. Invited us to grab some preview beers at 2pm, but the tap room doesn’t open till 4.

fart preview

Refers to any occasion when you feel a large bubble of gas "transfer" or "travel" from the upper part of your colon to a position somewhat lower down, but without actually exiting from your butt immediately. This gastronomical "heads up" can be extremely useful in allowing you to both adequately prepare for the eventual "eruption" and hopefully prevent any disasters/embarrassment from said expellation, since it not only notifies you that a sizable fart is imminent, but it also enables you to (1) judge the approximate size/intensity of the upcoming whizzpopper and thus determine whether you should hastily change locale to avoid offending others' ears/noses, and (2) predict what **type** of fart ("dry" or "wet 'n' messy") it will likely be, so that if necessary you can rush to the bathroom, shed your pants and underwear like they're on fire (if they aren't already smouldering from repeated extra-spicy-chili farts!), or take other appropriate steps/precautions to lessen your chance of soiling both yourself and anything else that your butt happens to be in close proximity to, such as a chair, mattress/bedclothes, someone else's lap, etc.

Girl, surprised out of a sound slumber by her guy's sudden alarmed flinging off of the bedclothes and hasty exiting of the bed: Where ya going, honeysnugglez?
Guy, calling back over his shoulder as he's sprinting for the bathroom: Sorry, sweet cheex --- didn't mean to startle ya like that, but I felt a major liquid-fart preview back there.
Girl, giggling: Well, you know, I did warn ya about partying till 2am at that Mexican all-you-can-eat bash --- now you're payin' for it, eh???
