dryrobe wanker 

The dryrobe wanker (DRW) title is attributed to an individual who dons a dryrobe to project an image that they might partake in water sport related hobbies such as open water swimming, triathlon or paddling boarding. The unfortunate reality is in the majority of cases these caped crusaders live in land locked counties miles from a significant body of open water, and are more likely to be perusing the weekly deals in middle of Lidl. The predominant use for these quilted changing robes are more often than not either childcare related, or walking for their dog in it's colour matched dryrobe jacket. DRW evangelists ensure they conform to the pre-requisite outfit of beanie hat, DR and Crocs (usually in sport mode), with the ultra committed sporting a Volkswagen T series van with Dryrobe seatcovers. The less overt DRW is likely to favour the urban camo design to fly under the radar in public.
"Look Shazney, there's a pair of pink crocs walking themselves into Lidl '"

"Holy shit Carmel, look closer, that's one of them dryrobe wanker in a camo cape, owners gone into full predator mode"

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.
