Turbnerbler

An adjective which is used to describe someone who is undeniably humorous and makes people laugh with just their presence in a room. They are well-intentioned people with hearing problems.

This term defines a smart person who is occasionally unable to comprehend sentences being spoken to them, but all in all, everyone loves a turbnerbler and being around them can be frustrating only if you don't have the patience to repeat yourself. Otherwise, get ready to hear new mashups of things you never said or them simply being unable to hear you, even if you're like right next to them- because that's turbnerbler behavior.
"So, did you read the book assigned?"

Turbnerbler: "HUH????"

"Do you have a charger I could borrow?"

Turbnerbler: Checks their phone, "No, the time is 2:30"

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.
