The Clintonian Fallacy, so called because of former President Clinton's infamous line, "It depends upon what the meaning of the word 'is' is", is when someone you are debating tries to derail an argument by squabbling over the well known, and traditionally accepted, definitions and meanings of words and or ideas.

You: Racism is the belief that one race is superior to another.
SJW: No!!! Racism is...White patriarchy!!!...Even when you are not being racist you are being racist!!! Even when you don't know it!!! Your very existence is racist!!!! You, by NOT judging someone by the color of their skin is also an act of racism, and absolute proof of white privilege!!!!
You: The Clintonian Fallacy
SJW: You are ALSO a White Supremacist for not agreeing with me and disagreeing with the idea of a socialist welfare state that takes from the 1%!!!!!
You: What the hell?

trucker's tan

A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.

I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.

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.
