el salvador 

The smallest nation in Central America, and the most densely populated country in the Americas.

El Salvador is a country that has suffered much war and conflict, and is currently enjoying somewhat of a stable political situation. Tourism is becoming more abundant, regardless of the gang situation. The notorious Mara Salvatrucha, which has its orgins in the refugees and victims of the war, often leads to many negative misconceptions about the country.

El Salvador is a Latin American country, along with Mexico. Those who are showing discrimination towards either country obviously does not really know what it means to be Latino. While each country has its distict history, culture, and dialect and must be respected taking that into consideration, there is a common thread that binds them together.

In El Salvador, they do not speak or write LiKe DiS, unless they have been deported.(1)

The correct name for someone from El Salvador is Salvadoran, not Salvadorian or Salvadorean, though those terms are commonly used.

(1) A friend of mine in El Salvador was laughing about her co-workers who are deportees from the US. They came to El Salvador acting hardcore, but the country just laughs at their Timbs and bad English.

I am 100% Salvadoran. My boyfriend is Mexican and we joke about our differences but have a mutual respect. I went graduated from High School in El Salvador, I'm in college, have huge aspirations and strong, beloved connections with El Salvador. How you doin'?
"Where are you from?"

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.
