scomberdae 

A word to be used when someone says something you didn't quite hear or don't understand. This usage originated when a spelling bee champion misspelled the word "scombridae" in a news interview.
"Scomberdae? Are you saying scomberday?" can be used if you want a person to repeat him/her self or to show that you don't understand.

Alternatively, "Oh, well I thought you were saying scombrdae," can be used to cover for a mistake made due to misunderstanding.

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.
