Trucker Nuggets 

The nasty, gross, stained fabrics, bathrooms, smells, etc. that make your skin crawl.

You may be asking yourself, "What are Trucker Nuggets?"

Picture it:

A big, hairy, sweaty truck driver is on the road all day long. He checks into a hotel for the night. He wants to be comfortable and he's by himself, so he strips down naked. He sits in the upholstered chair to eat his greasy dinner. Scratches "himself" a few times and flips through the TV channels with the remote. He then decides it's time for bed. He crawls under the sheets. As he is trying to get comfortable he passes gas a few times (one was a bit overzealous) turns out the lamp and goes to bed. The next morning he checks out. What is left behind? TRUCKER NUGGETS!

Trucker nuggets don't have to be in a hotel or made by a truck driver. The term refers to all those nasty, gross, stained fabrics, bathrooms, smells, etc. that make your skin crawl. Some examples...
- A stained & worn waiting room chair upholstered with 1970's orange/yellow polyester woven fabric.
- Going in a thrift store and finding hair all over a shirt you were going to try on.
- Going in a really dirty public bathroom and watching your kids touch everything.

This is by no means meant to be disrespectful to truck drivers. The concept for trucker nuggets began In low budget hotels.
The hotel chair was covered in Trucker Nuggets.

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.
