What's the official name of this decade? 

"What's the official name of this decade?" was a serious business that occurred toward the end of the first decade of the year 2000, caused by people's indecisiveness with coming up with the "official" not so lame, catchy label before end of the year 2009.

Several contenders that arose:

The New Millennium
The Bush Years (accompanied by facepalm micro)
The Naughties
The Naughts
The Oughts
The Singles
The Zeros
The Ohs
What's the official name of this decade? Besides "The Naughties"?

I bet my wallet that the people reading this in a few years will be calling this decade The Twenty Hundreds. Just sayin'.

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.
