When a non-black person justifies their racism or insensitivity by claiming they have a black friend in order to prove they aren't racist.
Note: Black Friend is not a valid counterargument to accusations, thus, fallacy.
White dude: Hey, what's up my n***a?
Person: Dude, you're white, you can't say that!
White dude: No it's fine, my black friends say it's okay!!
Person: Bruh, you're using the black friend fallacy
The mythological one black friend that every group of young white males has in evey TV commercial. Most noticeable in all beer, car, fast food, deodorant and cologne commericals.

"Yep, he was just in the Taco Bell Commercial getting drive thru with 7 other white dudes."
The black person in a group of majority white people. The purpose of the Honorary Black friend is to demonstrate "diversity" in a group. They are also good for insight on black culture.

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.”

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 peecalculus.
