Screenshotception

The act of taking a screenshot within a screenshot, exactly like the movie "Inception", where the characters created dreams within dreams. Most often done while facetiming as an awkward gesture.

Setting: A boy and a girl facetiming past midnight
Boy: I was just about to- ... What did you just do?
Girl: I took a screenshot of you.
Boy: Fine I see how it is. I'm going to go to bed I'll talk to you tomorrow.
Girl: Ok, good night.
-The next day-
Girl: I saw your text. How did you get a picture of me.
Boy: I zoomed in on the screenshot you sent me, and screenshoted you in the corner of the facetime thing.
Girl: Why did you screenshotception me. You're a creepy person.

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.
