Pasta Tolerance Treshold 

Indicates for how many successive days you can live on pasta (plain or with something) without turning grumpy. Especially important when you are a poor student. If you are beyond your pasta tolerance treshold (PTT) you might want to switch to rice, polenta, potatoes etc. for a few days until you reach, for example, your rice tolerance treshold (RTT).
"Ey dude, pasta for dinner tonight?"
"No man, I'm really beyond my Pasta Tolerance Treshold. I'm going for rice instead."
"Alright, I see what you mean. Your PTT is not to be messed with!"

Tesco Value Vodka 

Oh sweet aqua vitae!

Britain's cheapest vodka brand, only available in Tesco stores.

It has become the staple alcoholic beverage of students and tramps across the United Kingdom, usually mixed with equally low budget soft drinks.

When exposed to freshers this beverage, above all others, has been proven to result in events of great hilarity and/or death.

Many theories surrounding the actual ingredients of this mythical elixir exist, it is most probably fermented primarily from the alcohol soaked clothing of dead Irish men - giving it that slight after taste of Guinness... and corpse.
Adam: "Have you seen Xander recently?"

Ben: "Aye, last night, he'll be out of it for a while though - he downed a bottle of Tesco Value Vodka"

Adam: "Oh S###! What happened?"

Ben: "He got naked and spent the entire evening singing Burlington Burtie then tried to burn down Kings"

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
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.
