Layan by The best defense January 4, 2018
Well, damn.

Where does one even begin to start with Layan. She's precious, the sweetest soul you'll ever meet. She loves so fucking hard. Don't take advantage of her. You'll never forget her. She's private, quiet too, but once you get to know her she changes everything. She makes you a better person, she makes you feel good. But often, she's struggling. She needs someone to be by her side no matter how dark it gets. Layans don't let people in easily, they often hurt on their own.
I fucked it up and lost a Layan, and once you lose her I doubt she'll ever come back.

She's the kind of girl you want for yourself. She's the perfect mix of shy, innocent, cocky, funny, horny and kinky. I fucked up big time.

Wife her, don't let her go. If we're thinking about the same Layan, her constant distancing and disappearing is normal, keep chasing her till you get her because believe me, you won't find or want anyone else after her. Man, just love her the way I should've. You're lucky. Fuck you.
Mark: Hey, man... I think she might be the one
Connor: A Layan?
Mark: A Layan

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.
