over-the-top melodrama, brought on by one's own stupid actions that is so painfully obnoxious everyone wants to injure you for acting that way. Named for Bella Swan of the Twilight series, who constantly puts herself in ridiculous situations and can't think herself out of a cardboard box.
"Do I love my boyfriend that I've been ridiculously in love with for over a year, or do I love the emotionally manipulative guy who is waiting in the wings that I think of as just a friend? Oh God, choices! I feel just like a Jane Austen character/Juliet!"
"I hate you and your belladrama so fucking much."
Similar to melodramatic, defined as "exaggerated and emotional or sentimental; sensational or sensationalized; over-dramatic" ......... but even *more* ridiculous, a la Bella Swan from the Twilight Saga by Stephenie Meyer regarding her entire relationship with nearly everyone in the world.
Oh god, don't be so belladramatic.....you'd think you were just dumped by a vampire.
to be unnecessarily over dramatic or extremely overemotional such as Bella in New Moon from the Twilight series
Him : OMG I ordered this with "some" pineapple and they only put a "little" pineapple ! I mean seriously did you not hear me tell them !! How many times do I have to tell them the difference between "some" and "little" !!! Do they not know who ... on and on.
You : Can you zip it! Quit being so belladramatic ... You're kind of a dick anyways.

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.
