arbitrards 

People born without developmental issues, who one day decide it'd be cool to live life as the harmful, irrational people they have aspired to become.

You may be familiar with an arbitrard if you've noticed:
1. those who refuse to wipe their butt-crust off the back of toilet seats
2. when something goes awry, you can bet a gazillion bucks they'll assign blame to everyone but themselves
3. a know-it-all
4. in the midst of an argument, irrational people who refuse to contemplate evidence staring them straight in the eye
5. people who personify Albert Einstein's supposed definition of insanity....they literally rehash the exact same stuff and wonder why nothing's right

Please compare to stundard
Gerald: Nope, nu uh. I'm telling you that your couch cannot pass through your front door. It just won't happen.

Hank: Aw, come in. It WILL work. Just trust me, 'kay?

10 min later....

Gerald: I told ya we shoulda gone through the garage to begin with!

Hank: Stop bitching and pass this couch through the door without damaging it!

Mike: It's the path of arbitrards to always disregard his friend's advice while utilizing his free labor.

Arbitrarium 

A museum of the arbitrary.
I want to open an arbitrarium and fill it with things like statues of people who have feet for hands, photographs of people on the beach who went there just because they felt like it, a diorama of a courthouse scene in which a judge is delivering a sentence based on his whim rather than on the facts of the case. A rock from my shoe. A dead squirrel. The letter M. An empty candy wrapper. The sound of silence!

Moderator: "I hate to impose an arbitrary inquisition but you two are getting f*cking no where."

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.
