Tech Bros 

Brooklyn Tech 

A prestigious school in Brooklyn; one of the three Elite High Schools on New York. Despite what everyone writing these definitions has to say, Brooklyn Tech doesn't match what all of the myths speak about it. Yes, there is drug activity but it isn't as much as everyone tells you. There will be days when you smell weed Brooklyn Tech is NOT filled with idiots and potheads but really smart people; a lot of geniuses.

Individual attention can sometimes be hard to receive. All of your teachers WILL know your names, don't worry.

Brooklyn Tech is filled with many good teachers (Such as the man who invented the rechargeable battery) and also bad teachers (Those who are biased towards a certain gender or want to make everyone miserable).

Brooklyn Tech was my second choice on the SHSAT and Stuyvesant was my first. Ironically, I am very happy that I made it into Tech. Shortly after taking the SHSAT, I found out that Stuyvesant students often get very little sleep; their environment is very competitive. They will tell you of their "We're-All-In-This-Together" atmosphere but many of my friends have confirmed that this is a lie.

Brooklyn Tech really does contain the atmosphere in which everyone helps each other out and the only ones left behind are those who see themselves as better than everyone else or those who don't interact with their classmates at all.

It is one of the greatest schools in New York and in the U.S.

TIP: Figure your teachers out and learn their behaviors.
A: Damn, I forgot all about the presentation today.
B: No prob, man, I'll help you out.
A: Thanks! You're a life-saver.

C: Damn, 75 in ____'s class again! What am I doing wrong!?
D: Don't worry about it, dude. I had him last year. Almost impossible to pass with above an 85 unless you're a hot girl with big boobs. You'll get over it. He's just one obstacle in your life.
C: I guess you're right, it's just one a-hole in my life. He doesn't matter.

E: Hey, where do you go to school?
F: Brooklyn Tech, why do you ask?
E: Brooklyn Tech!? Damn, you must be really smart. I heard the work load is a killer!

brooklyn Tech 

Founded by Dr. Albert L. Colston, Brooklyn Technical High School is one of the three elite highschools of New York. The faculty of Brooklyn Tech has its odd balls but overall it has some of the finest teachers anywhere. Brooklyn Tech offers a vast variety of intellectually stimulating courses along with an overwhelming variety of clubs, sports and the like. The student population of Brooklyn Tech is more or less evenly spread, racially, and contains the highest concentration of the greatest young minds of New York. As a testement to this fact is its outstanding alumni, which includes the founder, owner and current CEO of Barnes and Nobel bookstore among many others. It is even said that if you go anywhere in the world wearing a Brooklyn Technical Highschool t-shirt someone will come up to talk to you (often it's to either offer a job or talk about the good ol' days). The building itself is an amazing work of art. Outside one will find carvings of owls overlooking the main entrance way, heads finely crafted lining the wall of the school, acting as guardians of a sort. Along with this the center section of the school's first floor contains an amazing mural dedicated to the achievements of mankind through labor and science. The building was crafted in the 1930s at the time of the great depression and was designed to be self sufficient in all ways. Although it may seem somewhat outdated the building of is a physical representation of the greatness that is Brooklyn Technical Highschool.

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.
