In the case of an undesirable erection or a narb (no apparent reason boner), the meneuver done to hide such displeasures from the public eye. The move consists of glancing left, glancing right, then swiping the erection up, to be held by the elastic or waste of the pants.

Yo I got a huge boner in class, so then I pulled a left-right swipe so I could stand up and get my paper.

I went out in my hallway after I woke up and did a left-right swipe to avoid any awkward confrontations.

Boffin

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.
