Fretaphobia 

The act of being new to guitar hero and being afraid of the blue and orange frets because you don't think your pinky finger can take it. The normal reactions to this are anger, threats, violence, and, depending on how drunk the player is, incessant giggling. Symptoms may include reluctance, making up excuses not to play, and headbanging to draw attention from the T.V.

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.
