Somosphere 

The somosphere is the sum of all man-made networks, systems, software and hardware required to support virtual identities used in social media and gaming. It combines the words 'somos' (Spanish meaning 'we are') and 'sphere' and describes a completely artificial zone that engulfs much of the Earth. Drawing on a comparison to the biosphere, the somosphere can be seen to have evolved from the need for humans to communicate, moving from a purely verbal form of language to one that could be written, distributed through invention of the printing press, telegraph, radio and TV, and the Internet, to its current state as a global electronic ecosystem that supports virtual life. Unlike the biosphere, the somosphere is not a self-regulating ecosystem, although this aspect is changing with major contributors such as network operators, Internet Service Providers and social media giant Facebook showing reluctance to moderate content or comply with government interference (e.g. to prevent illegal downloading of copyright material). To this end the somosphere has emerged to be representative of the true will of the people, who are (for the most part) unrestricted by physical form, age, gender, social standing, nationality, geographical and geopolitical location, relative and religious influences and taboo. To borrow a quote from Descartes, 'We connect, therefore we are'.
Recent opinion polls have failed to appreciate factors within the somosphere, which could account for their poor performance in predicting the outcome of the Brexit and US Presidential Elections. Such factors include the reliability of statistics based on unqualified accounts; deliberate false accounting; trending within anonymous groups; and media interference. Clearly big-data generated by activity within the somosphere alone is not reliable and, as with grossly overestimated predictions from mixed meteorological data over the effect of global warming, pollsters must rethink the models used when assessing the habits of real people in line with online advertising.

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.
