street epistemology
A non-threatening, often public, discourse; designed to identify, explore and possibly modify deeply held personal beliefs through the use of the Socratic method.
Through my exposure to street epistemology, it became evident to me that faith--as a foundation for sustaining religious belief--is unreliable. How could divergently opposing religious systems expect to use faith as a method of conveying revealed Truth, yet come to mutually incompatible conclusions? Answer: they can not.

epistemological skateboarding
/gerund phrase/
The application of any physical or mental knowledge acquired through the relatively sustained practice of side-walk surfing (aka skateboarding) to other domains, activities, or knowledge. Skateboard knowledge is necessarily applicable to other topics, since its very essence is the application of physical and mental knowledge derived from water surfing to activity taking place on non-liquid surfaces. However, skateboarding's evolution may be heading back to a more fluid medium, which might explain why skateboarders are so obsessed with air, as in "I'm catching big air" and "nice air dude!" As such, we may very well see flying skateboards in the near future.

<I totally landed that calculus problem!> The skateboard knowledge (epistemological skateboarding) applied here is as follows (skateboard knowledge in parentheses): if you keep trying to (land the trick) solve the problem, but (fall flat on your face) get marked off full points for it on your calculus mid-term, (get back up) practice solving the problem, (try again and again) and practice often, you will eventually be able to (land) solve the (trick) problem on the final exam.

Kant created a structure of truth (epistemology) out of aesthetic itself. This had wide-ranging ramifications for aesthetic, will, and ethics. This occurred even though Kant used the term "aesthetic" to refer to form which was technically incorrect (aesthetic is contrapositive to form).
Marx also created an epistemology but his epistemology cannot answer Kant's epistemology because Marx created a structure of truth from form (formalism).

Boffin
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.
