A dialect of English that grew out of a desire to bowdlerize vernacular speech by deliberately mispronouncing vowel sounds. Modern Ninanese is characterized by its liberal use of uncommon abbreviations and by its inconsistent but pervasive substitution of the the short /ʌ/, and occasionally /ɨ/, with long /uː/, making "shut" and "fish" sound like "shoot" and "foosh." Occasionally, two- and three-word phrases are substituted with other phrases that bear the same initials.

Ninanese (proficient speaker): That bootch def just made a face at me.
Arthur Von Schwarz: How impolite.
NPS: I mean let's be rull, I look narst as fook. This hair could most certainly bring down oil prices. And this G-town sweatshirt is all kinds of jank.
AVS: Haha if you say so.
NPS: Oh, yeah, whatever, (twirls hair) I mean, I wasn't being serious or anything, but-- (trails off)
AVS: Oh! Sorry! I was kidding!
NPS: Whatevz, I'ma cutchu.
AVS: I don't have time for this, I'm off to a spelling bee.
NPS: Oh! Gloock!!! I was just kidding, I SLLR you! Have foon at your Santa Barbara!!! :):):)

Nigganese

(Rarely used in this sense) another term for African-American Vernacular English, otherwise known as Ebonics; however, in its truest sense, it is Ebonics so broken and dialectical that even other black people fail to understand what the person is saying.

Dickanese

the indecipherable language of mumbles and grunts that girls speak when they are trying to communicate whilst having a dick in their mouth. it is doubly humorous because it plays on the words Dick and Knees, which are two key components to the speaking of Dickanese.

"by the end of the night, carlo had natalie speaking Dickanese "

"i don't usually do this" (hard to understand with your dick in her mouth)

"where's the handle" (usually gargled language)

A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.

I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.

Boffin

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.
