Sailor Cherry 

Small latino man (with or without moustache) in 50's pin-up attire. Sometimes likes to aspire to do modelling or tell potential suitors that he is a model.

Sailor Cherrys (such is the plural) are never over 5ft in height and often have Jabba-the-Hut esque facial characteristics.

A good example of a Sailor Cherry in the media would be the small character 'Rinky Tink' (often mislabelled online as 'Tattoo') from the 1970's US television show 'Fantasy Island'.

Sailor Cherrys are often happy in demeanour until their ruse is uncovered and their actual gender is revealed, at which point they become incredibly fierce... a la 'Rinky Tink' from television's Fantasy Island.

A Sailor Cherry's natural habitat would be any bar or beach where throwback, rockabilly losers hangout and dance to Wanda Jackson records or Johnny Cash. Should any of these people discover that other types of music and other artists existed in the 50's it causes upset and confusion, but not to Sailor Cherrys. They listen to Amy Winehouse, happily bobbing their head... a la 'Rinky Tink' from television's Fantasy Island.

A most startling characteristic of the Sailor Cherry is their protective nature toward any food preparation area they deem to be their own.
There are many reports from Southern California of Sailor Cherrys baring their teeth and screaming a string of incomprehensible language in a high-pitched, banshee like wail before attacking. The common feature among these incidents has been the presence of one or more other person than the Sailor Cherry entering her kitchen... a la 'Rinky Tink' from television's 'Fantasy Island'
"Oh God, nobody look. Here's comes Sailor Cherry! Nobody talk to shim!"

"Hi Sailor Cherry! I just thought I'd drop into your kitchen for..."
"SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAJAWANACAMINMAKISHENFAYOSNAFABISH?!"

"Sailor Cherry's drunk again, he's trying to sleep with a coyote."

"Oh no, Sailor Cherry's put lipstick on. It must be mating season."

"The plane boss! The plane!"

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.
