second hand phone 

Like second hand smoke, many of us may have been affected by this dangerous contaminant, for instance at the gym as you are attempting to go about your workout and all you seem to hear is the total annoyance of the cell phone conversation from the person next to you.
It's even worse when the person is on speaker phone.
Second hand phone at it's worst is when you can't even hear yourself think, the conversation engulfs your entire existence.
I was experiencing some serious second hand phone when all I could hear is every detail of my roommates cellphone conversation in the kitchen.

Perma-phone Hand 

A permanent relaxed positioning of the hand that closely resembles your hand when holding your cellphone.

This is caused by excessive cellphone usage in which the cellphone is kept in hand frequently over an extended period of time. The hand over time thus naturally conforms to the shape of the phone.
An example of an IPhone Perma-phone hand

-in a relaxed hand position the hand naturally extends pinky forward (where it would be holding bottom of phone if it were there)
-The pointer finger naturally extends slightly upward
-the middle, ring and pinkie finger lower downward below pointer (pinkie being lowest and middle highest)

the difference in a Perma iPhone hand and regular hand can be seen when comparing both your hands in a relaxed position side by side with palms faced down or you can turn both hands (relaxed) sideways and your phone should be easily secured into positioning in your perma-phone hand

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
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.
