bolton wanderers

Bolton Wanderers F.C are a small football club playing in Football League One very unsuccessfully as of 2017. Not many people know how they are in such a high league in comparison to the standards of them self. Somehow picked up a couple of trophys in the past, but the other clubs felt bad for them and let them win a few games, a lot of bribery too. Always in the shadow of their biggest rivals, Wigan Athletic.
Bolton Wanderers are shit!

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.
