Ricky Dillon explained wig very well in response to a tweet. In his reply on March 10th 2018, he said "Its basically like you're shook. Like something exciting or crazy just happened that made you so shocked that your wig flew off so in short: wig! but if you wanna spice things up you can add an action after that's a synonym for flew or gone. For example: Wig incinerated."

A term not created, but revised by the pop culture stans in which, when something is so suddenly unbelievable, amazing or "sickening," your wig is gone. In acknowledgement to your wig being snatched, you would use this term. The context you would use this term in can vary, but it is mostly used in appraisal of something or someone, especially of legends in the pop culture industry.

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
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.
