Potsdam Pottery 

An up and cuming sex move, which takes place between a large male and small female. The move was originally founded by Jolo and Mara in Potsdam, Germany. The female is positioned like a manual pencil sharpener atop a firm pencil. She is then spun around like a slab of clay on a potter's wheel. The ritual is complete when the clay is perfectly decorated and glazed.
Jolo: How would you like to try the Potsdam Pottery?
Mara: What's that?
Jolo: We are about to make history.
Mara: Umm okay.
Jolo: I'm going to make your world spin, literally...

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
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.
