A video showed the recording of some "interesting" event. During that event, the filmer started filming someone else who was also filming the event. I have no doubt that the original filmer was in camera view of someone else who was also recording it. So they were filming someone, filming someone, filming an event. At some point a full loop likely transpired resulting in the original filmer or phonetard catching a glimpse of themselves through their own camera.

Phonetarded

A word that describes someone who know absolutely nothing about smart phones and how they work. These people usually have to ask for help with everything on their phone wether it is sending a text, taking a photo and worst of all using facebook. This label is mainly used for the older population who just switched from a flip phone to and iPhone.

My great aunt just ditched her flip phone for an iPhone X. I swear she’s phonetarded or something. I’ve had to help her for hours just to learn to text and open safari.

Traffic was moving along great until I found myself behind this total phonetard doing ten miles per hour under the speed limit.

We were leaving the movie but were stuck behind this huge, fat phonetard who was oblivious to the fact he was blocking the hallway.

Also phonetardedly (adverb, as in, to drive phonetardedly)

Boffin

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.
