Tinder celebrity

They blindly and furiously swipe right to every profile in a 160km radius, thus eventually gaining publicity amongst all tinder users and gaining tinder celebrity status.

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.
