The poster known as Djimbe has been utterly proven to be a liar and a fake. The Bullshido Administration have decided to take action and notify all posters through this signature of Djimbe's past claims:

* Tigerfly can own collegiate wrestlers
* Telling wrestlers what is or is not a shoot when he doesn't wrestle
* He can break Rickson's forearms at will and could beat him in a streetfight
* TF's workout regime surpases those of pro athletes
* All Judo/BJJ comes from Qin-na
* He claimed he had an upcoming MMA fight
* He thinks he could take Matt Thorton
* He thinks he's more skilled than Asia (no one has seen that at any throwdowns). The implication at the time was fighting, not just Baji.
* Grappling and beating two BJJers at once
* People must ask his instructor permission before opening up a school in Chinatown.
* "its really not all that hard to pick up (ground grappling) if your Chinese Standing Grappling game was tight in the first place" -he has no clue as to what grappling is.
* Three months at his XingYi place and TF could destroy a bjj blue belt in grappling.

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.
