Patao (Patau) - short version: a moron, an idiot, a person who doesn't understand anything and is always wrong.
In aggressive form it basically means "fucking idiot" / "dumbass" / "complete retard" (very rude).
The word comes from the small town of Brody in Lviv Oblast, Ukraine.

Helga Pataki syndrome
Based on the brand Patagonia, a word used to describe their (arguably) overpriced clothing brand that is meant for outdoor activities, and is very useful and effective for such. Although many people still wear it for camping, hiking, and such, it has been largely taken over by people in Finance/Medicine/Computer Science who have recently landed high-paying jobs. Many companies also provide their jackets/vests or other clothing with their logos to their employees. Due to this, it has become a known unwritten uniform to many company's employees.
Example 1:
Man, I just got a bag of stuff for landing a job at (insert big finance firm/hospital/Tech Company)! Hmm, I got a folder with some brochures, some crappy pens, a yeti mug with the company logo on it, and a Patagucci vest. Time to wear it 24/7, at work or in public!
An extended metaphor that creates its own context.
Created by Paul Avion and based on Alfred Jarry's science of 'pataphysics (the science of that which extends beyond metaphysics), a pataphor attempts to create a figure of speech that exists as far from metaphor as metaphor exists from non-figurative language.
Also, when an idea seems to take on a life of its own.
"When the new teacher snubbed me, I thought it was because I failed the test.
When I learned the teacher hadn't seen me, I realized I had been thinking in pataphor, creating an assumption based on an assumption."
"That's all in your mind, fool; strictly pataphor."
"Because string theory is speculation based on ideas that are themselves speculative (i.e., theories of general relativity and quantum mechanics), quantum calculations are, increasingly, not describing an actual reality, but are mathematical pataphors." See also pataphysics.
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.
Short-hand for the word floccinaucinihilipilification, meaning the estimation of something as valueless (encountered mainly as an example of one of the longest words in the English language).
