Platonic Puddle

A platonic puddle is a non-sexual, non-romantic cuddle session between two or more friends. Platonic puddles may be participated in by couples and usually stem from a love for non-sexual physical affection.

The general rule for participating in a platonic puddle is to keep it G-rated. Kissing is only acceptable in the form of a quick peck on a non-arousing part of the body such as the shoulder, cheek, or forehead.

Platonic Puddles can also occur when standing up, in the form of a group hug. Standing Platonic Puddles are generally used by girls to comfort another obviously distressed girl.

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.
