A term coined by the Starcraft commentator Cholera, named after the Korean pro Starcraft player Hyuk, used to describe the act of losing after having a seemingly insurmountable lead. It came about due to Hyuk's repeated failures even with all the odds in his favour in several pro-league matches.

Well he seems to have the game in the bag, but give him time, he could still hyuk it up.

Hyuk

'𝘏𝘺𝘶𝘬' is a term coined by George 'Goofy' Geef. George first used the term in 1932 as a laugh when Pluto came on stage in Mickey's Revue and pulled off stage quickly. The term has spread around quickly and George's 'A Goofy Movie' has been nominated 5 times at the 23rd Annie Awards, possibly as a result of his goofiness and 'Hyuk'.

Goofy : Hyuk! I sure hope that wasn't too much text!

Mickey : Oh I'm sure they're nice, and they will let this slide.

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.
