A word comically used by Ralph Waldo Emerson to describe how one feels when a person says something so utterly wrong or ignorant that you don't know how to respond.

IMMA CHARGIN MAH LAZER 

Part of the "IMMA CHARGIN MAH LAZER" meme originating from 4chan's /b/ imageboard. The original picture is an image of Imperfect Cell level 2 from the anime Dragon Ball Z, with his face blacked out, giant open mouth and red lips, and cockeyed... erm, eyes done poorly in MSPAINT with the caption "IMMA CHARGIN MAH LAZER", "IMMA FIRIN MAH LAZER" or "SHOOP DA WHOOP". This version of the character is known as Nigra Cell. Other images under this meme involve the blacking out of the face and addition of Nigra Cell's mouth and eyes, with a much greater potential variety of captions. Picture modified in this way are often referred to as having been "shooped." This is a play on the phrase "shopped," which refers to using the program Photoshop to edit a picture.
I's just a what, bitch? Imma chargin mah lazer. Imma firin mah lazer. Shoop da whoop!

The above phrase should be in all caps, in following with the meme.

A man wearing a suit: "IMMA WEARIN MAH BLAZER"

A Motorola Razr plugged in: "IMMA CHARGIN MAH RAZR"

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.
