This math is so reasonable, btw. Girlmath is basically if you have a budget of $20 when you go into a store, but these beautiful pair of jeans are $25 you will only be paying $5 because you had orgianlly planned to spend $20 but it was $5 more so that 20 was aready pretended and paid $5 dollers over so you only paid $5. Get it?
girlmath is not the same as normal math.

Girl Math 

The fuzzy-and-funny logic used by female digital natives (who proudly boast about not being born or blessed with the “math gene”) to rationalize why they are getting a pretty good deal as far as their time, money, and convenience are concerned, compared to those who think or act differently from them.
“Girl math” may debatably be likened to the female equivalent of Yogi-isms or Yogi Berra’s “aphorisms.”

Girl Math 

An illogical reasoning and justification to making an unnecessary purchase used primarily by women.

When someone wants to purchase something, this purchase often being more than they should make, they will make illogical reasoning to justify the purchase, this reasoning is known as "girl math." There is reasoning behind the "girl math," but the reasoning is strongly biased towards the impulsive desires of the user to make the purchase and isn't very logical when taking everything into account from the person's income, to the cost of the purchase, to the necessity of the item.

Some examples of "girl math" are:
- Someone says "I made sixty dollars today!" when they bought something discounted for $440 that was usually $500.
- When buying $300 shoes, "it's less than a dollar a day if I wear them for a year." This "girl math" is commonly used as marketing in product advertisements as well.
- When returning an item, "I made an extra $120 today," followed by immediately going to the store to spend all of it because it was extra money.
- When purchasing something from the store, "it's free because I'm using cash." The reasoning coming from the fact that the purchase won't effect the person's funds in their bank account.
Got this $260 pair of shoes for free because I used cash! Girl math!

Girlmate 

Used by a chavvy male to specify a female friend or best friend, who is not specifically a girlfriend, possibly to boast that they aren't shallow towards the other gender.

Unfortunately it says the opposite as any non-chav bloke will just say friend and specify female if later required.
Guy 1 - I was talking with my girlfriend the other day right, well not girlfriend yano, girl that's a friend...

Guy 2 - The word's girlmate

Guy 1 - Shut it yeaaa'

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.
