In Gay Culture, once a man turns 30, his sexual and social desirablility decreases to practically nil (except to Daddy Chasers who like their men older) because he has crossed the threshold into "gay old", or "gayncient". This literally occurs overnight.

Many gay men try to circumvent this by lying about their age (usually subtracting anywhere from 2 to 5 years from their actual age) on dating apps like grindr and Scruff, or becoming gym rats. Ironically, gym rats often turn body fascist, dating only men they deem "fit enough".
TWINK: Hey, Stud. How's it going tonight?
ADAM: Great! How about we go back to my place?
TWINK: I thought you'd never ask.

The following week, after Adam's 30th birthday:

ADAM: Hey, you! How've you been?
TWINK: Ugh. Why is this tired old queen talking to me?
ADAM: ...
DADDY CHASER: DADDY!
ADAM: ... OMG, I'm gayncient!

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.
