Kennick (noun) - equivalent of calling somebody a fool. Can be shortened to Ken. The slang of Irish Gipsy tinkers and English Travellers.
"Dashy is a proper Kennick"

"Ashley got caught lying again...what an absolute Ken!"

"My boss is making me work the weekend again, the spiteful Ken!"

"Which Ken used all the Ketchup again?"

Used frequently throughout South West London, Middlesex and Kent. Especially in the areas of Sunbury, Stanwell, Ashford (Middlesex), Shepperton, Chatham and across Medway.

Some say the word originates from gypsies hunting the Kennick bird on Stanwell Moor way back in Victorian times. The Kennick bird was hunted to extinction leading to the bird being deemed useless. Hence why Kennick is a derogatory term although it can be used as a term of endearment.

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.
