The Logic from which only the fuzzy can understand. Not for the kind face; Deeply thought out facts on light issues not discussed in simple english.
Not usually found in normal everyday conversations.

Profile pictures on MySpace or other social networking sites in which a woman (or man, these days) wears pants that are cut so low you can see his or her pubes.
You: Wow, have you seen Henrietta's mom's MySpace pic? She's a little old to be wearing jeans that low.
Me: Yeah, you can see her pubes in that fuzzy logic, dude.
You: I wish Henrietta would post a fuzzy logic for her Facebook photo.
Me: Yeah, but I kind of like the digital divide she posted. I'm a tit guy when it comes right down to it.
You: Yeah, I'd take digital divide over fuzzy logic any day.
A formal system that extends classical logic to handle degrees of truth rather than the binary true/false. In fuzzy logic, a proposition can be 0.2 true, 0.8 true, etc. It uses truth values in the continuous interval 0,1 and defines logical operators (AND, OR, NOT) accordingly. Fuzzy logic theory underpins control systems, decision support, and approximate reasoning. It is not “vague” but mathematically rigorous, designed to model the inherent imprecision of natural language and real‑world measurement.
Example: “Fuzzy logic theory powered the washing machine that sensed ‘slightly dirty’ vs ‘very dirty’ and adjusted the cycle—no binary decisions, just graceful gradations.”
A multi-valued logic where truth values vary continuously between 0 (false) and 1 (true), allowing handling of imprecision and vagueness. It contradicts the principle of the excluded middle (something is either true or false). Used in control systems (air conditioning, ABS brakes), artificial intelligence, and decision theory. It is not "logical relativism" – it has well-defined rules.
Fuzzy Logic Example: "In fuzzy logic, the statement 'today is hot' can have a truth degree of 0.7 if the temperature is 28°C – neither completely true nor false, and an air conditioner uses that to adjust ventilation."
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.

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.
