threadgasm

A period of time when the quantity of messages on a facebook inbox message, or "thread", absolutely explodes. A common sign of a threadgasm is when by the time one scrolls to the bottom of the page after it refreshes to see a new post, one is already missing at least one more post that has been written since the refresh.
Our facebook inbox had a threadgasm yesterday - 250 posts in only an hour or two! My phone was basically exploding in my pocket.

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.
