Tinderising 

To use the app "Tinder" to successfully talk a guy/girl into a date. Once this point has been reached, then your date has been sufficiently Tinderised.

Can be used in the context of when a person you are talking to on Tinder suddenly disappears off the face of the planet (which is somewhat inevitable), you can send them a message similar to: "so are you too busy Tinderising someone else to bother replying..?"
Friend: "hey what are you up to?"

Me: "Shhh! I'm busy Tinderising this really hot guy!!"

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.
