Hyper-Statism

A political tactic in which a person or group of people will state an idea or belief. After which, they will identify the people who are opposed to the idea or belief. Once this is done, they will begin to over-whelm the opposition with petty insults, pre-concieved talking points, and exaggerated (and even false) "facts". This over-whelming amount of insults and "facts" will make it so the opposition will not have the opportunity to reply. This is a common tactic used amongst both the Liberal party and media.
Liberal: I believe we should require everyone to pay 50% of their yearly income to the government like England and many other European nations, it would help alleviate a lot of problems.
Person: I think we should allow people to do what they want with their money, we live in a Capitalist and free society after all.
Liberal: What!? You don't want to help pay for welfare, medicaid, medicare!? You must hate the poor, and the elderly!
Person: But I-
Liberal: Well since you hate welfare so much you must also hate blacks. That makes you a racist as well. What? You dont want us to live in a nice society? You right-wing nazi! You must want to give all the money to rich people. Why are you so filled with hate? You probably hate Mexicans too since you dont support amnesty! You're so close-minded.
Person: I never said-
Liberal: You're nothing more then a fear-mongering islamophobic racist! Did you know 91% of conservatives hate minorities?
Person: Thats fals-
Liberal: Well they do, I just can't even stand your hateful attitude. You're so homophobic.
Person: Well this is Hyper-Statism at its finest.

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.
