Phonebook Month (observed) (U.S.) 

Phonebook Month (observed) (U.S.) is the month following distribution of stacks of phonebooks commonly observed by "phonebook dumping" them in front of offices of the business in who's name they are distributed (i.e., Verizon, Pacific Bell). Contrary to the "invisible" cancellation of subscriptions, phonebook dumping is an attempt to bring consequences to bear upon businesses that generate stacks of unwanted phonebooks. C.f., "phonebook dumping."
Every year we observe one or two weekends in Phonebook Month (observed) (U.S.) by collecting copies from all the lobbies and mailrooms on the block in a shopping cart and phonebook dumping them in front of the Verizon store in the middle of the night. Then we get smashed.

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.
