Erection Ratio 

<e-RECK-shun RAY-shee-OH>

This is a definitive measurement of a man's penis growth potential, or PGP. In the slang world there are two types of penises--growers and showers. Growers are men with penises that are comparably small when not erected, but grow significantly when aroused. Showers are men with penises that are long when not erected, but do not gain very much length when aroused, giving them the appearance of "showing off" when not in use. The Erection Ratio comes into use here. Whereas before there was two types of penises that were loosely defined, we now have a way of roughly determining whether or not someone is a grower or a shower. The Erection Ratio is the ratio of the erect penis to the inerect penis, expressed like 4:1 or 2.5:1. A grower is someone whose ratio is 1.7:1 or higher; a shower is someone with a ratio less than 1.7:1 (but not less than 1:1 or your penis shrinks when you get an erection!).
What is my erection ratio? 35:1. Or in other words, my penis is 35 times longer when erect than when inerect. That makes me a hardcore grower.

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.
