noviophobia 

Noviophobia is an irrational fear, aversion to, or jealously of others' relationships at large, especially of potential romantic partners already being in relationships. Noviophobia is derived from the Spanish word "Novio" (meaning boyfriend) and Greek word "Phobos" (meaning fear); This strange word was featured in an issue of Nintendo Power in a fan letter regarding the 2004 Nintendo DS game "Sprung", and it was also mentioned in the 2004 Sonichu newsletter "Sonichu's News Dash!".
To make a long story short, I developed a fear that all the pretty girls are already paired up with a boyfriend. I’ve dubbed this social phobia, Noviophobia, after the Spanish word for boyfriend.

Neviphobia

The fear of skin moles. The medical term for a mole is a NEVUS; Nevi are the plural of nevus. It is different from "dermatosiophobia" which is the fear of contracting a skin disease. Neviphobia is the fear of looking at or touching moles on one's self or on others but does not include the fear that touching moles will cause them to spread (that would be included in dermatosiophobia). It can range from the mild opinion that moles are unattractive to the extreme inability to be near someone with visible moles.
1. Cindy Crawford would be pretty if only she didn't have that horrible mole on her lip.

2. Enrique Iglesias used to be a mole face but looks really hot now that he's had it removed. See also Enrique's Mole and Molebarrassed

3. We broke up because I have Neviphobia and every time we had sex I kept touching those big lumpy moles and even in the dark it gave me the heebies.

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.
