Gurren Lagann 

What is Gurren Lagann? I'm not going to give a summary -- that's what Gurren Lagann is ABOUT. I'm gonna tell you what it actually is:

Once upon a time, there were three gods: Spectacle, Bombast, and Boobage. These gods were the absolute best of friends, inseparable from the beginning of their existence. But their explosive personalities resonated and compounded beyond limit every time they decided to have a wild adventure.

One night, these three gods decided to get drunk from an alcoholic concoction fermented from a mixture of testosterone, napalm, and concentrated pigmole blood. The result was a fantastic orgy that rivaled even the wildest of Dionysian parties in all of mythology.

As the three gods shrugged off their inhibitions, the night became hazy as they struggled to satisfy their bestial, sexual urges with the help of pleasurable company. Their seed burst forth from their loins, mixing as it flowed in a spiral pattern, and this divine essence impregnated the brain of a Mr. Kazuki Nakashima.

Nine months later, the entity in Nakashima's brain was delivered at Gainax hospital, after three hundred hours of agonizing labor. The newborn anime was christened: Gurren Lagann.
No matter how awesome a fight scene is in an episode of Gurren Lagann, they always top it later with an even more awesome one!

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.
