Whermst is a word created by "therussianbadger" on YouTube. Used in his video posted on the 19th of April.

It means 'what' 'why' 'where' and 'how' in one word.

If this post gets enough likes I will submit it to the Oxford dictionary with the likes as evidence that people use it the same way.

It’s 10 PM; do you know where your children are? — This was a regional program bumper / public service announcement from the late 1960’s through to the late 1980’s. In some regions, there was an 11 PM variant. This was sometimes the lead in to news programs. But best of all, it was NIGHTMARE FUEL for some of the best childhood ghost stories and URBAN MYTHS that kept a kid awake at night after scary stories were inappropriately told to them by mischievous baby sitters.

No mommy, this never happened to me…honest!!!!!!! Nor, was I ever the perpetrator of telling such a tale.
…And then while the mom was watching t.v., a man came on the screen and said, “It’s 10 PM; do you know where your children are?”. A shiver went down the mother’s spine so she went to check on her kids. When she opens the door there was a man standing over her children's dead bodies holding a bloody butcher knife. AND HE WAS WEARING A BUNNY SUIT…

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.
