little potatoes have big eyes 

Young children can be very observant to the things they see, especially the screen on your phone or tablet. This is an updated modern analogy to the old saying “little pitchers have big ears” .
As I was looking over Grindr thumbnails, my young cousin looked over my shoulder and ask what I was doing. Fortunately it was just PG thumbnails. It made me very aware, and as my older cousin and I mentioned the “little pitchers have big ears” reference, we changed the reference to potatoes, because they have “eyes”. Little potatoes have big eyes. Now we are a pet of history.

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.
