This term defines those teen and twenty-something’s of this decade. These were the ones shaping the fads, fashion and lingo of that time period. They could tell you how groovy it was back then.

The only thing babies born in this decade could recall is starting kindergarten, watching Zoom, Captain Kangaroo, learning how to read and write, getting McDonalds happy meals, duck duck goose and field day at school, playing outside til street lights came on - on up to being a fourth grader reading Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing ……too young for anything outside of that to remember much else about the decade.
Only a 70s baby could tell you how groovy it really was back then.

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.
