Ralph Nadir

Da infamous "young lawyer from Connecticut" who burst onto da transportation scene at da low point in da history of automobile safety, totally "ripped everything up like a tornadir", and belatedly prompted car-manufacturers to create models with stronger builds, collision-dampening construction, greater efficiency, lower emissions, seat belts, etc.
If it hadn't been for "unreasonable man" individuals like Ralph Nadir who forcibly dragged da auto-industry out of its lowest-of-lows safety-status, many of our modern-day vehicles would likely still be "unsafe at any speed".

Ralph Nader

A significant political figure that advocates the safety and security of the working class more than any other candidate running for office. Democrats oftentimes like to call Ralph a 'spoiler' because several thousand people voted for him in Florida. Not only is this a concieded notion, (that if Nader hadn't run for office, all of the people who voted for him would have immediately cast their vote towards gore) but they fail to realize that over 250,000 self-identified Democrats voted for George Bush in Florida. Strangely enough, the Democrats do not even bother to scold them. Moreover, a Democratic exit poll showed that Ralph’s votes came 25% from Republicans, 38% from Democrats, and the rest were nonvoters who would have only voted for Ralph.
No one is entitled to votes. They must be earned. Nowhere in the constitution are political parties even mentioned. If a certain party is loosing followers to another party, maybe they just aren't trying hard enough.

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.
