Grooty
The Grok-Groot Razor is a student thing that says whether something is explaining or just describing shit.
"Grok" is knowing some actual mechanism; Einstein said "matter bends space & time", which explained all of Newtons formulas in a single sentence. "Groot" on the other hand is usually a formula about relationships, but without explaining what's actually physically happening. Ohm's Law is Groot; math that to calculate voltages and resistance etc. while saying nothing about what electricity actually is. Most of physics is just groot.
Teachers love to make you memorize groot by rote, without ever getting to the grok that lets you really understand something.

grebo
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
