A shortened version of "What's up", which replaces greetings such as "Hello", "How are you?", "What's going on?", etc. This phrase was possibly made popular in the 1940's from a cartoon called Bugs Bunny, when the rabbit said his famous catch phrase, "Eh...What's up, doc?".

If you are not a social recluse then you will most likely be asked "Whatsup?" multiple times a day and be expected to answer with the vague "nothin", "not shit", "chillin", etc.

Other ways to say whatsup:

How's it hanging?, How ya derrin?, How ya doin?, What ho, What it be?, What it do?, What it is?, What's clickin?, What's crackin'?, What's poppin?, What's new?, What gives?, What's cookin?, What's crackalackin?, What's happenin?, etc.

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.
