Awesome Possum 

Awesome Possums value independent thinking, counter-culture, progressive politics, and have an appreciation for art and music, creativity, intelligence, and witty banter.

Like Hipsters, Awesome Possums embrace "non-mainstream" Culture and trends but unlike them, they also embrace mainstream culture and trends partially due to the fact that most Awesome Possums make trends popular. 

Like Metrosexuals, Awesome Possums have taste & style, know about fashion, art, and culture. But since the awesome possum is an evolution and fusion of many subcultures, metrosexualism and its features have long been passed towards younger males and also women.

With the fusion of mainly metrosexualism and the hipster culture arises the very urban style and sense of the Awesome Possum. But what also helps in the very urban style of the Awesome Possum is the fact that Awesome Possums evolve to the times and will always be known as "cool" or "awesome". 

Popular belief is that Awesome Possums hate outcast/posers/goths/punks/etc, however, generally, they pay little attention to other "types". This Brings us the the next fusion of Subculture which helped create the Awesome Possum, Prep.

The Prep subculture brings uniformity to all awesome Possums, but not to the extent of conformity. 

What Awesome Possums are not:
Emo, Racist, Poser, Skaters, Passé

Awesome Possums are just plain awesome.
Famous Awesome Possums include Barack Obama, James Bond, Anne Hathaway, Ewan McGregor, and Pandas

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.
