DECA dance 

A dance which takes place most commonly at a DECA state, regional or national conference. The girl to guy ratio is usually something like 3:1 at a state competition, and most of the guys are ugly unless you go to a good conference. They are mostly awesome dances, and at the (inter)national conferences the attendance is in the thousands. Afterwards, many sexual encounters, toga parties and elevator parties may occur, and secret stashes of alcohol snuck into the conference are busted out.
At the PA state conference last year, a drunk kid showed up to the DECA dance in nothing but boxers, and couldn't believe they wouldn't let him in! I say fuck the dress code!

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.
