Old Thing 

An “old thing” refers to relationship. When someone uses “old thing,” it’s typically because they have nostalgic sentiment for it.

When someone says they want “the old thing back,” (which is the context it is used in majority of the time), it means that they want things to go back to the way they were before. They miss how things were between them and their ex. It is usually used when substantial time has passed between the present and the relationship they had with their ex, OR there has been a long period of time since things went south in their relationship with their ex.

Omari: “Forreal? Damn I miss that girl. I want that old thing back...”

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.
