korean coincidence 

a coincidence that is...well, just too coincidental to really happen. typically found in Korean soap operas, music videos, and movies.
Regular coincidence: You have exact change for the clothes you're buying. Afterwards, you find a dollar in one of the pockets.

Korean coincidence: The store goes up in flames, so the cashier gives you an entire rack of clothing for free. Unfortunately, the store doors close at that exact moment, locking you and the cashier inside. Convinced that you are about to die, you kiss the frankly attractive cashier. The moment you do that, your girlfriend pounds on the store door trying to see if you're inside. She sees you, bursts into tears, and runs into a busy intersection. After firefighters pull you out of the fire, you see your girlfriend being pushed into an ambulance. You donate your organs to her so that she can function normally. She visits your comatose body in the hospital, and birds conveniently begin singing.

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.
