2. Mr. Conroy: "Charlie! What happened to your brogans???? You better not have lost them because I put in tons and tons of overtime painting houses just to buy them, you ungrateful little son of a bitch."

Little Charlie: Tommy Adams and his cronies yanked them off me and threw them in the Allegheny when I was walking home from school today."

Mr. Conroy: "Goddamn it!!!" {chugs down the rest of his Iron City, slaps Little Charlie in the back of the head, gets up from kitchen table, and grabs baseball bat}. "I guess I'm going to have pay a social call to his old man, then..."

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.
