pulling full othman

When your friend says he will show up at the party and basically never shows up. He then proceeds to cancel the plan last minute cold bloodedly with no apparent guilt.

In contrast, pulling half othman is when your friend only shows up towards the end of the party.
R: Hey there is a party tomorrow you coming?
O: Sure, why not!? Sound so fun!

-> Day of the party
R: Can't wait for our party! Gonna be so much fun!
O: Oh, BTW I ain't coming.
R: Bro... Don't be pulling full othman on me again........

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.

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.
