The Yupik word "Gussuck" refers to any non-indigenous person; it is a derivation of the word cossack, and thus can be dated to early Russian colonization of Alaska.

In literature it is used by author Leslie Marmon Silko in the short story "Storyteller" which depicts a clash of cultures in Bethel, Alaska.

It can have a negative or joking meaning, perhaps like the word Yankee used by someone from the American South

gumsucker

Antiquated term for a person native to the state of Victoria, Australia.
In the same way, South Australians are Croweaters, West Australians are Sandgropers & Queenslanders are Banana benders.

Still undure as to the equivalent terms for Tasmanians, Northern Territorians and New South Welshmen.

Croweaters bare casual resentment towards Gumsuckers as a general rule.

Boffin

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.
