The Local is a local neighborhood person with a mental illness who kids hang out with and taunt and make fun of, thinking the local doesn't know better.

Still I think the locals enjoy the time they spend with the other kids despite the misdeeds of the neighborhood kids.

Locals are a great group to hang with as their perspective on life is so different it can add insight to your own.
The Local was so strong from his disregard to the limitations of strength, when he played football, he picked us up by the head about 4 feet off the ground and yelled "SQUUUUUEEZZE, KAAAH-RUNCH" while squeezing and crunching our heads (really really hard)

Even though he was terrible at football and insisted on wearing a helmet he could slump the other kids onto the sidelines and put them out of commission with a single blow (but he was somewhat careful, but he didn't know better sucks for the sideliners, lol)

The local was a great guy to hang with cause you never knew what to expect and a great person to have on your team though professionally I think he'd get misconduct flags every play, lol.

A place you didn’t plan to stay long but somehow always end up closing.

Not necessarily the closest venue to your house, but the one that feels like it is. Built on familiar faces, questionable decisions, and the unspoken agreement that “just one” never means one.

Equal parts comfort and chaos - where friendships are formed, group chats are made, and next weekend’s plans accidentally sort themselves out.

You don’t go to The Local for a big night. You go because you already feel a part of it.

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.
