Definition: (n.) The phenomenon where a boomer (a person typically born between 1946 and 1964) abruptly halts their movement—whether walking, driving, or entering a facility—to scan their surroundings, oblivious to the flow of people or traffic behind them, causing a bottleneck or disruption.

Contrary to what you might think, Boogerdamus is not a predictor of Boogers. A Boogerdamus is best defined as one who is facetious, cantankerous, and pugnacious, yet still has that lovely boyish charm you would expect from someone with such an awesome nickname. Basically he's a cornucopia of broodiness, sassiness, and fun!
"Ashley W., don't be such a Boogerdamus."
"That Ashley is such a Boogerdamus, he's always trying to be slick about things."

A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.
I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.
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.
