Shalom Alechem 

“SHALOM ALECHEM”

A way to kindly greet a sir
There are many ways to greet other people
Such as: Hey, Hi, Whats up, what’s good, whats cooch etc…
But nothing, I mean absolutely nothing beats “shalom Alechem” when greeting someone.
This is the only way you greet a sir.
1. Make eye contact
2. Extend arm out
3. Firmly shake your hands with the sir (imagine your squeezing your dick when you shake their hand, it will assert dominance)
4. “SHALOM ALECHEM”
5. And if they fuck with you they will politely respond by saying “MALECHE HASHALOM”
Example:
Johnny: “yo ben”
Ben: “whatsgood”
Johnny: “shalom alechem”
Ben: “fuck you nigger”

Shalom Alechem 

"Shalom Alechem" a way of greeting a gentleman with glory and respect. People try greeting others by saying things such as: What's up, what's good, whats cooch. But the ONLY right way to greet a sir properly is:

Step 1. Shake hand firmly

Step 2. Smirk slightly
Step 3. "sighhhhh... Shalom Alechem"

If the sir approves, he will reply by saying: "Malache Hashalom"

And if they don't reply by saying "Malache Hashalom" they probably have a very small dick.
So small that you can't even see it with a microscope.

(Studies show that people who don't say "Shalom Alechem" are usually cat-owning liberals, filthy democrats, or gay activist)
Scenario 1:
Johnny: "Shalom Alechem Ben you fine gentleman"
Ben: "Malache Hashalom Johnny my dear sir"
(both raise wine glass gracefully)

Scenario 2:
Johnny: "Shalom Alechem Ben"
Ben: "fuck you nigger"
Johnny: "ok"

and again if they don't reply by saying Malache Hashalom, they're most likely attracted to dudes

trucker's tan 

A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.

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.
