Thrasher 

A fan of heavy metal music, specifically thrash metal, crossover thrash and sometimes thrashcore and hardcore punk. The modern "dress code for thrashers often includes, long hair, flipped-bill hats (a style borrowed from early 80s hardcore punk, specifically Suicidal Tendencies), a "Kutte" or "Battle Jacket" (a denim jacket or vest covered with band patches), and sometimes ammunition belts. Modern thrashers are often characterized by their love of classic thrash metal bands like Slayer or Exodus, as well as modern thrash metal like Municipal Waste and Warbringer, as well as their carefree "party dude" ethic in addition to the stereotype that they are excessive drinkers and music elitists.
The thrashers gathered in large numbers at the venue to see Warbringer perform.

Thrasher 

A thrasher is anyone who lives and breathes thrash music. This might also be
(or at least should be) a metalhead.Though the thrasher is technically a metal head the thrasher will only listen to thrash metal and rarely go outside this genre. And if they do go outside they are bound to go back in to the genre in less than a few hours. The thrasher attire is farely simple and does not require any real money(except for the jacket which will be spoken about later) The tharsher look is to basically wear anything you have and not give a fuck what anyone says. This usually consists of old white high tops some tight jeans a band shirt(of any color) and the jean jacket. Now if said thrasher does not own any thrash band shirts then this person most likely has a jean jacket with his favorite metal bands on it. Since the jacket goes more into detail aboout what the thrasher likes the more it is taken around and the less likely it is to be washed. Thashers could care less about what anyone else thinks. The music that pisses the thrasher off most(and this is true for some metalheads) is ska Look it up it wont be defined here. The true thrasher goes to every gig he cans and as a result learns to be a pretty tough bitch considering hes been in more than 10 fights for no utter reason. Thrashers are great allies and you wont want to have any of them as enemies. Youll get fucked up....bad. Especially if you talk about there music. Thrash is all mighty to them. Thrashers are often found in other groups with other thrashers at night most likely going to a gig.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
