The Angela Bassett Moment:

This motherfucker is psychotic! I bet you there are serial killers less anal. A white woman's the only one who will TOLERATE your smug ass. I was your white woman for eleven years! You couldn't have started that damn company without me. Hell, I WORKED MY ASS OFF! I mean, I got a Masters' degree in business, and there I was - his secretary, his office manager, and his COMPUTER! "No, Bernadine, you can't start the catering business this year. Why don't you wait a few years? Yeah, don't start now; wait one, two, three years. I need you to be the FUCKING BACKGROUND to MY foreground!" 732...732...the number of times that we made love. I remember when that bastard told me he was counting - right after 51! I'll show you! FUCK ME FOR NOT LEAVING YOUR ASS THEN! But the worst, oh the FUCKING worst, was making my kids go to a school with two other black children because you didn't want them to be improperly influenced. Well, guess what, John?! YOU'RE THE MOTHERFUCKING IMPROPER INFLUENCE! Get your shit, get your shit, and GET OUT!

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.
