South Yorkshire term meaning a reckless, hyperactive scally/chav whose behaviour has become too excessive even for regular scallies to deal with. Usually restricted to one per gang, the billson is often seen clambering over street furniture in an attempt to escape his mates that he has just stolen from. This is usually tolerated by the rest of the gang as the billson is something of a super-scally and a useful tool in 'out-scallying' rival gangs.

As with most scallies, billsons emit nasal whining noises rather than regular speech. Billsons, however, tend to be much louder and rowdier than their peers, giving you ample advance warning should you encounter one on the street.

In addition to accepted scally behaviour, billsons appear to specialise in the following:

1) Climbing
2) Throwing things
3) Picking up dog turds with the end of a stick.
4) Running at mates and hanging from their necks, therefore dragging said 'mate' down onto the ground.
5) Being encouraged by his mates into doing something disgusting or dangerous for their amusement e.g. urinating on railway power lines.
Scally: "Eeeyaah billson, give us back me fags, yer fuckin' dick'ead"

Billson: "Eee-aaa-eeee-yaaahhh!"

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.
