American Taliban 

A U.S. citizen and traitorous idiot who was captured in Afghanistan at the start of the war there against the Taliban after the 9/11 attacks. Real name John Walker Lindh, born in Washington D.C., he became radicalized and converted to Islam as a teen, then went to the Mideast to train and fight along with the Taliban punks against the U.S.

Could also refer to any U.S. citizen or resident who lives/lived or was born in the U.S. but becomes a radicalized Muslim and joins forces with the foreign Taliban or Taliban-related group, against the U.S.
I'm worried about Jimmy and his sudden strange behaviors, proclaiming Sharia Law and booking trips to the Mideast for "education." I hope he won't become another American Taliban.

The most amazing, beautiful girl in the world. She's got hair like a lion's mane, eyes that make you melt when she looks at you, and a smile that brightens up anyone's day. She loves to dance, sing, and make a complete fool of herself when nobody's looking. She's adorable, kind, caring, loving, and just an all around good person. She's a lioness, a bird, and a bear. If you don't have yourself a good Taliyah yet, go get one.

A very different breed of male, he has the most beautiful and pure soul one could ever discover. A strong warrior- like personality outside but inside he's a soft and fragile person. He'll make your day better just by existing. His smile can make the darkest of rooms the brightest ; maybe the brightest but holds a dictionary of meaning in it. A library of words cant explain how much euphoria this man brings into everyone's life. He tends to underestimate his looks and his personality but he doesn't see how beautiful he is. He's that guy you see in the football court, standing with his hands on his hip, his beautiful sparkly eyes roaming around the court observing; just existing and you cant help but feel a tiny spark in your heart when you see him, yes he's that attractive. Talha has taken part in a lot of battles, very unfair battles, where he lost many times. Battles caused by his loved ones, which broke him into pieces, he tries his best to look for them but every step he takes. He's an angel with a shotgun, he fights each and every battle with grace, he doesn't fear his fall. He gets back up stronger. An outter shell may remain the toughest but it still has that soft side inside, no matter how much you try, it will never harden. If you ever meet a talha, please take good care of him. He's something you will regret losing.
#hey! Look at this Talha's drawings; he's so talented.
#look, it's that handsome guy from the football match the other day, go say hi to Talha

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.
