The act of temporarily bolstering your own social status and the expense of another male (usually a friend). Most often seen in terms of an almost reflexive physiological reaction in the presence of an uncommonly attractive female. One male may physically or verbally insult his companion in order to portray his dominant status in the male-male relationship.
This portrayal is often facetious and is likely to be viewed negatively by the insulted party. The alpha-dogger will also feel like a bit of a dick.

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.
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.
