Tannerism is a religion based on a set of core principles: the mini-dab, poorly formed puns, expert puns, and the Most Holy student teacher in existence. His state of holiness was discovered when one of his students realized a correlation between him and Jesus Christ: they both were present in the Beginning, both came back to teach us important concepts, and both shall come back some day. In Tannerism, there is a holy trinity that consists of A Man Named Zucc, Tanner, and the Amazon Box Man. Since it was formed recently (March 14, 2019), there is not much information currently in the public domain.

(Separate from the Anti-Mormon institution. One of the newly created rules of Tannerism states that all should respect Mormons, and never eat them or their books.)

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.
