Yangle is a shortened term referring to a triangle that yawn. As many know, yawning is considered "contagious", as if one person yawns, it is proven that another person is 78% more likely to yawn. If someone in a group of three, in the case of a yangle, yawns, it is extremely likely for somebody else in the group to yawn, and again. This a continuous cycle until somebody leaves the group or resists the urge to yawn.

Other terms that are used to refer to this event but with different numbers of people include:
"Yair" - pair of people yawning
"Yaquare" - square of people yawning
"Yantagon" - a pentagon of people yawning

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.
