absitively 

A cross between absolutely and positively. Coined long before The Simpsons, since it was used by Henry Blake and Frank Burns in MASH in the 1970's and in the movie Oliver & Company in 1988.
In the episode "The Trial Of Henry Blake," the court asks Frank, "Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?"

Frank responded by saying "Absitively."

Absotively Posilutely 

A term coined in the 1988 Disney film " Oliver and Co." For those cats that are just too cool for school and have mad amounts of street saviore faire.
Dodger: And once you got the beat,
you can do anything.

Oliver: I can?

Dodger: Absotively Posilutely!

Absotively Posilutely 

A confirmation, made whimsical from swapping word-endings... The usage goes back at least as far as "Dirty Duck", a comic strip (graphic novel) written by Bobby London in the 1970's, including the tag line: "Posilutely, Weevil!" "Absotively, Mr. Duck!".

This, in turn, refers back to the theme song by the Gallagher and Shean vaudeville act (big in the 1922 Zigfield Follies), each stanza ending in a punchline, and followed by Shean's query, "Absolutely, Mister Gallagher?" and Gallagher's reply, "Positively, Mister Shean!"
Blunting the offense of doubting someone: "You'll be on time, then? Absotively?", "Oh, posilutely!" (Absotively Posilutely)

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.

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.
