Sudden Onset Autism 

Sudden Onset Autism, or S.O.A for short, is an extremely rare condition of unknown origin. Development of this disease is both abrupt and severe. As of now, the pathogenesis and mode of infection have eluded even the most qualified of research teams at Harvard, Hopkins, and Yale. Some have suspected that transmission occurs through contact with an infected person, especially prandially. There is still hope for a cure, although we may be decades away.
Infected Person: Hey man, let's go grab some lunch
Healthy Individual: what?! It's 3 in the morning. What's wrong with you
Infected Person: Well... it's lunchtime somewhere!
Healthy Individual: Oh God, you have Sudden Onset Autism... Please go away from me!
A fictional capitalist created by Dr. Seuss in 1971 as the main antagonist. He is also included in the 1972 The Lorax 25 minute short-film and the 2012 The Lorax made by Illumination. The Onceler produced a product called Thneeds, using the tuffs (leaves) of truffula trees. Near the end of the story, he runs out of trees and is forced to close his business. He gives a small child the last truffula seed to birth a new forest. The Onceler portrayed in the 2012 film spawned a fandom of simps, which in turn caused the creation of tumblr sexyman. In this fandom, he was shipped with himself, and fan created oncelers. However, this fandom died after a few years.

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.
