Situational Socialist 

Noun.

An individual who briefly embraces the concepts of Socialism after a lifetime of objection and hostility to it. This is done to satisfy a momentary need for its benefits, which the individual has actively sought to deny others when they needed it. Once the need is satisfied, the Situational Socialist will then usually resume hostility and objection to Socialism as before and resume seeking to deny it benefits to others, while acting as though the previous aid was never needed nor granted.

Situational Awareness 

1. A booster in the multi-player segment of the PS3 only video game Uncharted 2. Situational Awareness takes up the top slot of the two available slots for boosters. It is made available for purchase at level 46. This booster is commonly referred to as: "Sit," "Sit Aware," and, "Situational." By standing still and pressing the Up direction button on the D-pad one can see enemies' names pop up through walls as they run around. This booster is usually used by n00bs or people looking to be dicks. Fortunately, the booster Evasion (unlocked at level 50) makes one immune to Situational Awareness.

2. Possessing the trait of always knowing what is going on around you; awareness of one's situation (duh).
1. UnchartedPlayer1: Ah, some fag with Situational Awareness on was camping in a corner and killed me. Fuck.

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
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.
