Compensated Dating 

Translated from the Japanese word, 「援助交際 」or "Enjo-kōsai." Compensated Dating is a term used to describe young women going on dates with older men in exchange for money or gifts. These dates often end in sexual activities. It is a form of prostitution, however most women who participate in Enjo-kōsai do not view themselves as prostitutes.

Although this term originated in Japan, compensated dating has spread to other East Asian countries and has even stretched to the USA under the phrases sugar daddy and sugar baby.

See enjo kosai.
Friend A: You're doing compensated dating? Isn't that really horrible and shady?!

Friend B: What does it matter? These older men are giving me a shit ton of money.

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.
