Quarantinesgiving 

It is a combination (portmanteau/neologism) of the words Quarantine and Thanksgiving. Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, this can be viewed as a novel holiday in which Thanksgiving is celebrated during a quarantine typically accompanied by virtual parties and get-together via Zoom or Skype. Social-distancing and a minimal number of guests are urged for such a holiday, but not always abided by during such times like those of COVID-19.
John: Are you excited for Quarantinesgiving on Zoom?

Mary: Not really, this is sad and depressing, I wish we could be in person, but I guess it’s better than nothing.

John: Hang in there, we can enjoy a virtual meal, toast, and good chats amongst our family and friends while keeping safe and not spreading this damn virus.

Mary: Okay, you’re right! I guess I didn’t think of it that way; in that case, Happy Quarantinesgiving!!!

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.
