Put on Clams
The 2016 equivalent of the mid-late 2000s phrase "you got served". For one to be put on clams, they must be showed up by somebody who is considered of lesser ability (i.e. an underdog).
The phrase's origin is unclear but it did originate from the suburban town of Montville, NJ. The thought process behind the phrase seems to tie into the nature of clams to be served as an appetizer (i.e. clams casino) on a platter for group consumption. In this example, it points to somebody being put out in the open to be picked on by a multitude of bystanders.

Boffin
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.
