saved game 

Used to denote a single parent with children, typically a woman but can be used to describe men, albeit very rarely does it get used to refer to men due to the judicial system and custodial law. The term originated loosely from the gaming community to refer to a saved game as a potentially corrupted file, ruined playthrough, etc. This phrase was coined due to the ability of a single-parent to corrupt and outright take advantage, most notably financially and emotionally their respective childless partner. Also supports the notion that a lot of childless people see saved games as damaged goods. Very often used in MGTOW community

citrus scale 

One of the ways to rate fanfictions. The citrus scale goes: orange, lime, lemon, and grapefruit. Though some people add other fruit in, it is mainly just those four.
Orange: Sort of the equivalent of PG-13. Doesn't really get beyond kissing
Lime: less explicit than a lemon, but still has sexual content. Characters do not have sex in a lime, but it is pretty close.
Lemon: Probably the one you will hear of the most. The characters in a lemon have s-e-x
Grapefruit: This one has two definitions. One is a really weird lemon or lime. The other is non-consensual sex. The second definition can be written as g-rape-fruit sometimes.
Pie1: hey, what is that story pie3 is writing on the citrus scale?
Pie2: errr...lime
Pie1: WHY NO LEMON
Pie2: you're weird....

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.
