Shanahoe 

A shanahoe is a commonly used name to describe the girls that attend Bishop Shanahan High School. If you ever say this to a Shanahan kid, they will either laugh at you or punch you in the face. However, most of the girls that do attend Shanahan are not shanahoes, for it is just a name made up by the public school kids that are just jealous of the rich girls. The other girls that go to Shanahan that are not what you describe as a shanahoe are either religious freaks, band kids, or they’re actually somewhat normal. The girls that do fit the definition of a shanahoe normally go to parties with alcohol or smoking and they’re either on the cheer team or the lacrosse team. If you walk into the school bathroom in the morning all you will get is the strong waft of mango juul pods and you’ll know that a shanahoe is present. Shanahan girls have to wear an extremely short and ugly green skirt everyday, and if you don’t pull up your socks or your tights have holes in them then you immediately get demerits. The short skirt is usually what throws people off to call all of the girls at Shanahan shanahoes, even though we can’t control how short our skirt is because the uniform store makes them that way.
Person 1: Wow she is such a shanahoe.

Person 2: Why is that?
Person 1: I don’t know, all the Shanahan girls just annoy me for some reason. Maybe it’s because they dress so revealing.
Person 2: You know, she can’t control what she wears to school, because it’s a uniform.

Person 1: I know but she just looks ridiculous.

Shanghoed  

Similar in practice to Shanghaiing, an unwitting person (usually males) is lured into conversation with a parter who looks to be "to good to be true" or "totally out of my league". Following these introductions and possible promises of sensual intentions, the focus of conversation changes dramatically resulting in one of two ways.
1. Finding out that said partner is quite different than the way he/she/it presented itself (mentally unstable, stalker, relationship addict, member of the opposite sex then previously thought, etc).
2. Mounting attraction to said partner is used to throw unwitting person to the less attractive or socially inept friend of out of your league partner.
Outcome 1 Example
"Hey Ted, what happened with you and that smoking hot girl at the club last night?"
"Oh yeah the next day she came to my house and had photoshopped pictures of us to look like our wedding day."
"Damn man, you got Shanghoed"
"Tell me about it."

Outcome 2 Example

"So what happened last night with that girl?
Seemed cool enough, then she introduced me to one of her sorority sister who dresses up for medieval fairs.
You got shanghoed my friend."

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.
