Herpenialist 

Used to describe someone who is in denial over his or her herpes or downplays them. Though a large blister on the corner of their mouth appears, they will demote it to a “canker sore” all the while telling you it is not contagious. Do not leave any open cups around this person, as they may drink out of it without giving it a second thought and thus spread the virus. Herpenialists are most contagious at the bar. They may attempt to make-out with you in complete disregard to any lesions affecting their oral regions.
Ralph: Michelle told me that her blistered lower lip was from drinking too much orange juice.

Dan: You can't trust her, she's a herpenialist. She had a huge sore on the side of her face last month. How do you explain that?

Ralph: Shit, I made out with her at the bar last night!!

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.
