the quirky earthbound inspired indie rpg 

A term people often use to slander "quirky" indie turn-based RPG games that have similarities in terms of gameplay or themes that tackle mental health issues such as depression. Often used for indie games that are inspired or has the same vibe with the "Earthbound/MOTHER" series, hence the sentence.
Person A: Dude you should play OMORI, this game is so depressing.
Person B: Ah yes, the quirky earthbound inspired indie rpg.
Person A: bruh who cares about that! It's a great game anyway!

Indiecore 

Indiecore is not only a style, but is also a music genre. Indiecore is a blend of Hardcore and Indie music. The term Hardcore has been changed immensely since its original meaning. Hardcore was originally a genre created by bands such as Bad Brains and Minor Threat and it was influenced by fast abrasive punk rock. Indie technically has no definition besides the fact that it is the abbreviation for independent. Indie was just a genre created to describe music that you can't and don't want to put a specific label on. The style of Indiecore is very similar to the style of Scene, in ways in which they wear tight pants and band merch. Indiecore is also different from Scene, because they usually don't have choppy hair and they are proud of their natural hair color and don't dye their hair. Indiecore kids are very supportive of local music, and its practically all they listen too.
Scene Boy: What kind of music is this? I can't tell if I like it.
Scene Girl: It's a blend of indie and hardcore, I thinks its called Indiecore. It's confusing.

Indie Snob 

A person, usually a self appointed "Musician" who particularly entertains the idea that their taste in music is really different and unique to everyone else's, and is usually convinced that any band who experiences commercial success has "sold out", even if said fan may have previously claimed to have liked that band before their peers.

Putting three Indie Snobs in a room together is usually dangerous and somewhat anti social, as they will continually argue with each other over who liked a band first.
Regular John: Mate. Muse are playing in a few months, I haven't seen em yet. Wanna go?

Indie Snob: Bitch please, I saw them years ago when they still played in bars.

Indie Snob #2: Yeah? I went to High School with one of them.

Indie Snob #3: Pretty sure I was there watching their grandparents have sex, you're all newcomers.

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.
