Legolas Thranduilion 

Legolas is a character from The Lord of the Rings trilogy (both books and films). In the films, he is played by Orlanda Bloom and is known to say the line 'They're taking the hobbits to Isenguard!' Which in fact created a very famous remix on youtube.

He is a member of the Fellowship of the Ring, a group of Nine companions (Frodo Baggins the ring bearer, Samwise Gamgee, Meriodoc Brandybuck, Perigrin Took, Aragron, Son of Arathorn, Isildur's heir and her of kings, Gandalf the Grey, Boromir of Gondor, Gimli of the Lonely Mountain (Erebor) and Legolas Tranduilion)

The Fellowship is there to help Frodo get the ring to Mordor.

Legolas is the Prince of Greenwood, which became Mirkwood during the journey of the Company of Thorin Oakenshield ( Read the Hobbit) as evil started to return to the Forest.

Some people mistake his surname as Greenleaf which is actually the translation of his name from elvish (forgive me since I don't know if it's Sindarin or Quenya). Yes, Legolas does actually mean Greenleaf.

His official title is Legolas Thrandullion which means Legolas, Son of Thranduil (The great Elvin king Of Greenwood)

He has no surname for he is an elf. Only titles. This should surprise the fanfiction authors who have their Mary-Sues marry him and take on the surname 'Greenleaf'.

And I am actually a female writing this so BAZINGA.
Aragorn: Legolas, what do your elf eyes see?
Legolas: They're taking the Hobbits to Isenguard!

Aragorn: Legolas, what do your elf eyes see?
Legolas: Mary-Sues who want to marry me! Lots of them! RUN!

Mary-Sue: I want to me Mrs. Greenleaf!
Me: It's actually Legolas Thranduilion. Also, it's his title not his surname! Muggle, you should be thrown into Mount Doom!

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.
