Boobtuber
A female vlogger who's vacuous videos emphasize her breasts at every possible opportunity in order to accumulate views. The video thumbnail will also contain a prominent picture of her breasts.
The actual video content and dialogue is typically dire. Many viewers will note in the comments that they muted the sound in order to increase their enjoyment of the video.
The term comes from a variation of the term "Youtuber," one who uses Youtube. We arrive at "Boobtuber," one who uses one's boobs to generate traffic on their Youtube channel, by substituting "Bob" for "You" in Youtube. This is also a clever play on words in that a "Boobtube" is also a ladies garment often sported by Boobtubers in their videos.
Boobtuber's videos are popular with young males who have strict (militant) parents that would severely reprimand them if they were found to be viewing dubious sites, whereas good wholesome Youtube is considered fine..."It's ok mom, it's only Youtube...etc etc"

Boffin
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.
