retardicans 

Socially conservative republicans who base their political beliefs on conservative religious beliefs and who are unaware of the logical inconsistencies in their arguments. Retardicans rail against government intrusion in people's lives, but want the government to restrict choice on abortion, disallow gay unions and marriage, pass and enforce laws on drug usage, increase military spending, and proscribe prostitution or other types of sexual interactions they believe are 'sinful'. Retardicans favor laissez-faire capitalism even when it is not in their own economic interest to do so. The actual areas where they want less government intrusion are taxation and gun rights.
The Retardicans at the Tea Party rally held up their signs saying 'Get your government hands off my Medicare.'

retardical question 

A play on the phrase rhetorical question, a retardical question is a question so stupid, it leaves the people being asked speechless, and unable to answer with even a sarcastic response. A retardical question has such stupefying power,it can leave an entire room in a confused daze, and, in written form, can kill as many brain cells as aerosol or a Miley Cyrus song.
Dude 1: What did you put in answer for number 9?

Dude 2: You mean "name something flat? I put pancakes, tortillas, Earth....
Dude 1: Wait what?! Earth?
Dude 2: Yeah it's flat right? That's what people say.

Dude 1 is so stunned by this retardical question he is unable to speak, or move, and has to be taken to the school nurse.

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.
