"Have you read my Rentry yet? It has pretty important info, like how I stan every single K-pop group imaginable and am deathly allergic to bees."

"No, I have not. And I won't, for the sake of my own sanity. Do you have a Twitter, perhaps?"

"Yeah. I love getting into petty drama there. It's a fun place."

"You know, I think I'm just going to make my Internet router automatically block access to Rentry for me for the rest of my life. I can't imagine what horrors must be on that silly little webpage of yours."

Abort, Retry, Fail? 

Abort, Retry Fail? or sometimes Abort, Retry, Ignore, Fail? was an error message displayed in DOS when unable to read data. The user is prompted to hit either A, R, I or F accordingly.

Abort - Aborts the operation.
Retry - Tries to read the data again.
Ignore - Hands "default data" to the application requesting the data.
Fail - Tries to continue without the data. Fail nearly always proves unsuccessful as it will result in missing data.

Retry is in most cases the only hope for success.
Data error reading Drive C:
Abort, Retry, Fail?

'Abort, Retry, Fail?' was the phrase some wormdog scrawled next to the door of the Edit Universe project room. And when the new dataspinners started working, fabricating their worlds on the huge organic comp systems, we'd remind them: if you see this message, {always} choose 'Retry.'

A Rent fan who, back in the day, spent hours waiting online to get $20 front row tickets to see the show. Tickets were given on a first come basis, so you had to be there really early in the morning, and you purchased the tickets around 6pm. Now replaced with a 'lottery', which only requires you to show up 2 hours early and numbers/names are drawn from a hat. A true Rentrat sat four hours in the extreme cold, the extreme heat, the rain, the snow, etc., all for the love of the show.
Tourist: "Look at those poor homeless kids."
Rentrat: "We're not homeless, we're Rentrats."

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.
