Maskfisher 

Someone who will purposely put on a mask just to make themselves look more attractive. Masks tend to cover up a lot of facial details such as acne and pimples, freckles, lips, teeth, a large portion of the nose and any nostril hair, any blemishes, moles, and anything else that is in the lower half of the face, in which some people take advantage over this, as it hides anything people may find unattractive, thus making said person more attractive.

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.
