Extraphysical Dimension

A dimension of reality that is not composed of physical space or time—a realm that exists alongside our universe but is not part of it. An extraphysical dimension might be where consciousness goes when it's not embodied, where angels dwell, where the dead reside, where possibilities wait to become actual. It's not "somewhere else" in physical space; it's "somewhere else" in a different sense entirely—a different order of reality that interpenetrates our own without being accessible to our senses or instruments. The concept of extraphysical dimensions allows us to imagine realities that are real but not physical, present but not detectable.
Example: "She felt her deceased grandmother's presence strongly in the old house—not as a ghost, but as a comfort, a warmth. She imagined an extraphysical dimension where Grandmother now lived, still close, still loving, just on a different frequency. The feeling didn't need proof; it needed language. Extraphysical dimension gave her that."

Extraphysical Dimensions

The plural form, acknowledging that there may be many such realms—not just one extraphysical reality but a whole multiverse of them, each with its own laws, inhabitants, and characteristics. Some might be heavens, some hells, some simply different orders of being. Some might be accessible in meditation, in dreams, in near-death experiences. Some might be completely beyond human reach, forever unknown. The concept of extraphysical dimensions opens infinite space for speculation, hope, and fear—there may be as many realities beyond physics as there are within it, each awaiting discovery or imagination.
Example: "He read about near-death experiences and wondered if they glimpsed extraphysical dimensions—realms just beyond the veil, briefly accessible when the physical body shut down. The accounts varied wildly, suggesting many such dimensions, not just one. Heaven and hell might not be places but categories, containing infinite variety. He found this either comforting or terrifying, depending on the day."

trucker's tan

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.
