microflirting

When someone wants to fuck you, but they don't know it yet or want to keep it on the DL. It's flirting, but at a subtler level.
Girl #1: Hey skank, lay off my ex
Girl #2: Um...we were just talking, bitch
Girl #1: Um...no you weren't. Thats the 4th time this week you complimented his hair, you just touched his arm, and that was some subtle eye-fuck action. Don't think I don't know about microflirting, bitch.

Microflirting

Similar to micro aggressions, microflirting is flirting on a smaller, much subtler scale. Maybe she's married, he's engaged, or they're in the same friend group, but they occaisonally make comments or gestures that suggest that interest.
Girl: "Hey, I really like your hair today. I love the conservative, clean-cut style."
Guy: "Thanks!"
Guy's friend later: "Bro, she has totally been Microflirting with you, man. That's like the 3rd time she's complemented your hair."

(Girl and guy hug as they part)
Girl's friend: "Gurl, did you see how he gave you strong eye contact and lingered for half a second on your lower back?That was totally a Microflirt."

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.

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.
