positive jamming 

A type of mob-based socialism seen frequently in the Internet Age in which the intent is to stifle and even eliminate political debate and opinions contrary to the mob. Especially popular among folk singers, baristas and people who thought that turning their bodies into bad kitsch art sounded like a nifty idea at the time.
"Did you see that web site that said young voters are 'fashion follow monkeys' and that Obama is manipulating us? Let's go lay some positive jamming on them. If that don't shut them up, we can even launch a denial of service attack."

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.
