dick caught in the ceiling fan 

A Youtube meme that began on May 1, 2012 when someone made a rather humorous comment on a fake instructional video on how to touch a wall with an apple, saying "The instructions weren't clear enough. I got my dick caught in the ceiling fan." Since then, the comment has gotten 15000+ thumbs up and has been copied ever since by various people posting comments on how-to videos even though it has nothing to do with the videos' content. This meme has grown to be almost as popular as the well-known Arrow in the knee meme.

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.
