The fear of glowsticks, light shows, and any other bright object often found at raves and nightclubs. Usually contracted after many jaded years of noodlewrestling and cuddle puddle jumping.

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.”
