metrogate 

a place where lots of bad shit happens. also, home of the infamous vandershower. It is often unneccesarily guarded by a muhammed, who makes sure no intruders sneak in. however, why someone would want to enter metrogate is beyond me. dont be fooled by the comfy couches in the common room. a blacklight would reveal much more than meets the common eye. and that computer you are using in the computer lab, was most likely used by a pedophile or a strange old man with glasses openly watching gay porn.
Guy 1: Dude, don't tell me you got sent there???
Guy 2: Yea man, I have to spend three months in Metrogate.
Guy 1: Oh man, you better watch out for that vandershower!

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.
