Amazon Prime 

The Amazon Prime, often shortened to just "the Prime", is the supreme leader of the Capitalist Republic of Amazon. The name "Amazon Prime" originated as a subscription service that rewarded people who bought it with perks such as a streaming service and free shipping, but once Amazon seized control of the United States during the First Brand War (2037-2040), the subscription service became mandatory for all citizens, so the name "Amazon Prime" was repurposed for the leader of Amazon. The current Prime is Jeff Bezos IV.
Bezos III was a better Amazon Prime than Bezos IV imo. Bezos III introduced same hour delivery and legalized interspecial marriage, all Bezos IV did was drag us into war with Alibaba and Tencent.

GLORY TO THE REPUBLIC, HEIL TO THE PRIME, AMAZON UNTIL THE END OF TIME!

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.
