Blue Checkmark 

Someone on Twitter who thinks they are famous but in reality nobody has heard of (usually a B-list celebrity or a journalist who writes for a little-known leftist publication). The main factor which separates them from the verified accounts belonging to real celebrities is that the Blue Checkmarks lack the self-awareness to realize that nobody really cares about their opinions, yet they act as though they are God's gift to political discourse as they spout their self-righteous hot takes on Twitter.
Of course all of the Blue Checkmarks came out in droves to virtue signal about the latest election news.

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.
