When you injure your ankle (or other body part) while dancing or in some vigorous activity but you successfully soldier on through it.

Named after the Olympic Gold Medal winning Gymnast, Kerri Strug, who sprained her ankle and damaged her tendon during her first vault in the all around competition. She was told she needed at least a 9.6 on her next vault for the American team to win the gold. She did the vault, landed on both legs momentarily, hopped on one leg to bow to the judges and then fell over in excruciating pain and received a 9.712, cinching the gold for the her American team.

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.
