Dark lipliner is applied to outline the lips to make them look bigger. Gangs tattoos are also common like a teardrop, 3 dots (Mi Vida Loca), or any tattoo repping where they're from. Additional identifiers of the cholafied style include: cat eyes, hair sprayed high bangs, crunchy gelled hair, bandanas, Dickies, Raiders jerseys, plaid shirts with only the top buttoned, white tank tops, and clean Nike Cortez's.

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.
