Cringe blindness 

Cringe blindness occurs when someone is unaware of either the cringey behavior around them or their own cringey behavior. Cringe blindness leads to a lack of any self-awareness or ability to notice social cues. Finally, an individual suffering from cringe blindness will be unaware of their suffering or the suffering of those around them.
Vincent was dancing around the graduation with a towel on his head and kept groping men's shoulders when taking group photos. It was clear to those around that he was suffering from cringe blindness.

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.
