The Sydney version of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre in which a poor Campbelltown hobo decided to blame the world for all his problems. Being a hobo he could not afford a chainsaw and had to settle for a whipper-snipper from the local dump. He then proceeded to kill every plant in his vicinity. It was a dark day indeed for all vegetarians, gardeners and general plant life. Its rumoured he attacked plants because not only did he have to resort to a whipper-snipper, the object itself was of typical campbelltown quality and therefore wasn't sufficient enough to cause injuries to humans.

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.
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 peecalculus.
