Daeshbag
a pejorative for members of what is variously called "the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria" (ISIS), "the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant" (ISIL), or "the Islamic State" (IS). It is based on "Daesh" or D-A-ʿI-SH, its acronym in Arabic (for al-dawla al-islamiya fi al-ʿIraq wa-al-Sham) + "bag", playing on the similar sounds of "daesh" and "douche".
Daesh
(or Da'esh pronounced dɑʃ ) A term used to describe the terrorist organization Islamic State introduced by French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius. The organization went with multiple names in previous occasions like Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) before the public settled with just Islamic State (IS). Fabius argued that since IS is not Islamic and absolutely not a state, he said "...the Arabs call it Daesh..." (from Arabic "to tread upon", "to trample or crush underfoot").

Boffin
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.
