A german word used in various situations to express that something is different than usual. Direct translation of it would be mass and the usage isnt that different. It can also be used similar to wicked.
Usually it is used without much sentence surrounding it, as it is an expression of surprise, awe, amazement, shock etc.

Most of the times, the 'e' is stretched.

If anything, german verbs like "verteilt" (distributed) or "gekriegt" (got) are added.

It can also be used if there's lots of sth around.

In rare cases, it has been used as replacement for a "Hello" or "Hi".
Witnessing a hard football tackling, you'd stand up yelling:
"MASSEEEE!"

After a pub fight were you had to take the hits, you'd say:
"Masse gekriegt!"

After a pub fight you won, you'd say:
"Masse verteilt!"

If you enter a pub with a lot of fine looking girls in it, you'd go:
"Masse an mädels!" or just "Masse!" with a glance in your eye so your mates would know what your on about.

algorithmic critical mass

algorithmic critical mass — the Urban Dictionary principle that states: the more words you enter into the Urban Dictionary, the easier it is to add words to the Urban Dictionary.

This is especially true if you make the words you add refer to your previous words based on known linguistic principles. In this way the algorithm reflects aspects of your mind; and your mind becomes one with the algorithm as well.

There is something more frightening than artificial intelligence and that is computer intelligence that merges with the mind of humankind.

What happens when infinite computing power merges with the full potential of the brain. I don’t know because I waste my mind on adding Urban Dictionary entries instead of contemplating more weighty problems.

But you have got to admit that that is an awesome Afrofuturistic observation.
If you add enough word to the Urban Dictionary you will reach an algorithmic critical mass where the algorithm will reflect your mind; and, your mind will reflect the algorithm.

Post Mass Effect Depression 

Sometimes associated with the "Mass Effect effect", this feeling comes from the completion of the Mass Effect game series. Common causes include getting immersed so much in the game that after completion, you feel lost and/or empty, or realizing that the Mass Effect universe is so amazing compared to our own and you're pushed down by the fact that you'll never be a part of it.

To be less extreme, people may feel empty because they realize that no other game will ever be as immersive as the Mass Effect series, thus ending their gaming career forever.
A common outcome of Post Mass Effect Depression:

"No girl like Tali'Zorah nar Rayya exists in our world..."

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.
