The boobs are always bigger on the other guy's woman

A "farm-girl instead of farm-land" variation on da old "seemingly lusher turf on neighboring fields" saying.
While it may indeed often be true dat "The boobs are always bigger on the other guy's woman", dat does not necessarily have to be an unhappy situation for you, since in some cases you could just try secretly asking said chestier chick if you yourself could softly savor her more-ample chest-pillows with yer own paws. Just find out first if da gorgeous Miss Bosomy is still of child-bearing age, though, in which case you should always be sure to bring a few condoms wif you, in case things "progress further" than just misty-eyed chest-kneadings and other "hands and lips only" activities!

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.
