Ed Witten 

A real smart dude. One of the founding fathers of string theory or superstring theory or M-Theory or some theory involving strings. Nearly became an economist, but saw the light.

Basically, cross between Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking, Richard Feynman and a supercomputer.

Ed Witten is a god-like figure in the Theoretical Physics world.
Ed Witten's a genius. Bet he gets all kinds of girls.

Geeeez, my Tv's broken again. I bet Ed Witten could work out how to fix it.

"What's a Calabi-Yau Threefold"?

"Bro, Ask Ed Witten"

Ed Witten's brain is so powerful that he can compute the last digit of pi while doing my long division homework.

Not even Ed Witten could work out how to score with Julie.

Dude, how did you figure out how to get Christie's Number?

I asked Ed Witten, he figured it out.

Nice work Ed Witten! Now my car smells of ten day old guacamole and burritos.

Ed Witten 

Theoretical Physicist at the Institute of Advanced Study, Princeton. In 2004, Time magazine wrote that Witten was "generally considered the greatest theoretical physicist in the world."

Most people consider him to be Einstein's successor.

He's a really smart guy: developed much of string theory.
Dang it! Even Ed Witten couldn't figure out how to use this remote control.

"What's String Theory?"
"Ask Ed Witten, dumbass"

Serial Monogamist 

Someone who jumps from one relationship immediately into another one.

Serial monogamists can not stand to be alone and often suffer from vast commitment and insecurity issues.

Because they jump into relationships immediately after the previous one has ended, serial monogamists typically don't take the time to reflect on their behavior or why their previous relationships failed; thus, they end up making the same relationship mistakes over and over again.
Person 1: Damn, Dustin already has a new girlfriend?! It's only been two weeks since he broke up with his fiance! I think he's a sociopath.

Person 2: No, he's a serial monogamist...
