Joaquin-Phoenixed 

A very rare disease one can attain from watching too many or acting in too many M. Night Shyamalan films. Though it may seem like a joke, this is a serious matter that must be addressed summarily. This disease can attenuate motivation, make you grow comical facial hair, face plant off a stage, increase your need to take narcotics by 675% as well as make one place gum under David Lettermans desk. Serious side effects include making one quit acting and start rapping. If indeed M. Night Shymalan is the cause of this, Mel Gibson and Bruce Willis should be joining NO LIMIT RECORDS any day now.
I woke up in an alley with a Moses like beard with needles all around me after a 14 day bender. I smelled of urine and appeared to have shat myself as well. Rather that shave and shower, all I could think about doing was rapping. When my crack dealer told me I might have been Joaquin-Phoenixed, I knew I should not have watched Sings 87 times last month.

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.
