Eating disorder twitter; a corner of the internet that ranges from those recovering from eating disorders to others encouraging them. When in this community, your TL may include fatspo, fake suicides, thinspo, meanspo, people debating if someone is skinny enough for thinspo, weird curious cats, Marissa mathews, kate moss, and more. Your fleets will probably consist of "what I eat in a day."

Recently it has been unfortunately infiltrated by a hell hole called "ED TikTok." If you stumbled upon this definition from TikTok, please never join Edtwt.
"Did you hear Edtwt is having a prom? I'm deleting the app"

the most stigmatized section of twitter. many users believe edtwt is just a bunch of fatphobic people encouraging anorexia but it is actually the exact opposite of what you think. edtwt is also clinically insane twt and should be treated as such.

trucker's tan 

A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.
I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.

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.
