People's pleaser 

Someone who's always nice, helpful and a basic moral support for just about anyone. Suppresses his (or her) own needs in order to please or satisfy (the needs of) others. The people's pleaser won't bother you with his or her own needs and problems, as this person is too keen on helping out others.

Great danger of being used (in the negative way)!!

In fact this is what girls should look for in a guy when looking for proper/stable "relationship material" (I guess), however, in some way this hardly ever results in a woman being either physically or sexually attracted. A people's pleaser is more likely to be put in the friends zone straight away, without even being considered dating material. Obviously this also works the other way around, where the girl is in the pleaser's role. But, as a fact, guys won't put the "pleaser" girls in a confined area called the friends zone as easily as girls would.

Closely related to being a nice guy, and unfortunately is as probable to lead to one-sided relationships. Where all the empathy and consideration comes merely from the people's pleaser, and for the good of the other person.
"Harry is suchs a nice guy, he's just a people's pleaser."

"Thanks for helping me out again, Mary, as always, you are too kind!"

After dating a girl for a while, she might tell you that:
"You're too good for me, you're such a people's pleaser. I see you as a friend/brother, rather than someone I'm physically or sexually attracted to."

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.
