A more familiar and friendly way of calling someone "bro". Broesy, brozay, and brosay can be used pretty interchangeably as the derivations are the same - all stem from bro. "Brosay" can only be used when getting the attention of or addressing someone with whom you're friendly, whereas "bro" can be used more broadly (in a friendly or non-friendly way). A combination of the spelling of broesy and brozay, its subtelty is recognized only by the most picayune of spellers
"brosay, that guy really hooked you on calls that match."
"damn, brosay, you looked so fukkin twisted last night. Was that you pissing out the bus window?"

Brozay derived from broesy. Either is a more familiar and friendly way of calling someone "bro". Brozay is only to be used while on good terms with a person, whereas bro can be used to get any guy's attention. If you're really tight with the person or he did something especially cool, the ZAY part of the word needs emphasis.
"Brozay, how've you been? Haven't seen you around...."
"Yo broZAY, way to score with that chick."

N. - An assembly of bros; typically bros assembled around a table. The most historically significant example of a brotay was the gathering of King Arthur and his knights around the round table.

Traditionally classified as a blend word, brotay has been argued to be a portmanteau, under the conditions that the aforementioned table is 'one of the bros', or is composed of parts of actual bro.
Person 1: Check out that table surrounded by a group of male friends.

Person 2: Oh yeah, that's a brotay.

Person 3: What's a brotay?

Person 2: Have you never heard of portmanteau before dumbass?

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.
