Danger to Manifold 

In the movie Fast and the Furious, Brian (Paul Walker) races a FWD Eclipse rice car in a quarter mile drag, and in his haste to beat Dominic (Vin Diesel), used too much NOS and the laptop computer managing his engine told him an there was an imminent danger to his manifold. The metal floorboard for the passenger seat comes lose and flies off his car, somehow linking his manifold and his floorboard as being an integral part of his street racing machine.

Computer: Stage 1 Complete
Paul: <presses Stage 1 NOS button>
Computer: (beeping) Danger to Manifold!
Paul: "Shut up!" <slams shut laptop lid and presses Stage 2 NOS button>

This phrase can be used to describe anything that is bad and you want to reference the movie to make the situation funny.
Person 1: Hey dude, look how ugly that chick is!

Person 2: OMG DANGER TO MANIFOLD!

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.
