first wheel 

First wheel is the person that is the lonely wheel in the front of a tricycle and the happy couple are represented as the back two wheels. Being the first wheel usually puts you in an uncomfortable position given then fact that you are forced to be around your friend and her/his mate. But remember, a tricycle can't function without the front wheel so the first wheel is a necessary component of the back two tires relationship.
Me: "Gosh Sammy, you are such the first wheel of this tricycle...look at Robby and Natalie that happy couple of tires back their and you're up here in the front such a lonesome tire...the first wheel"

Sammy: "Yea *sighs* it sucks being the first wheel...:("

first-wheeling

(n.) to take oneself out on date.

When a couple requests to be alone, a third wheel derails into a first wheel. First-wheeling can be devastating for individuals who dislike their own company.

A good first-wheel could start with laying out a spread of charcuterie, wine, and dark chocolate on the river bank; then unicycling home under the rose-colored sunset. When you get back, to look in the mirror, telling yourself, "my treat," and then blushing, flattered.
Martyn: "Nolan, I am getting tired of you coming on my dinner dates with Phosie."
Nolan: "Ok, I will start first-wheeling and get to know myself better."
Martyn: "Maximal pleb behavior."

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.
