Plastic friend and fake friend 

a plastic friend is someone who is your friend just for advantages and gives back only when he has to, not to get confused with a fake friend, which always is never really kind to you. These friends are usually friends with another one of your close friends that don't see how they're treating you.
Joe: have you seen Bill lately?
Kate: yeah, he was hanging out with Luke and Drew
Joe: Luke is such a plastic friend. Always taking and never giving!
Kate: Bill talked to me about it, he doesn't like it, but he's afraid to lose Drew.
Joe: he's also such a fake friend!
Kate: IKR! he's a Plastic friend and fake friend.

Fake Friend

Someone who ignores you when they're around more 'popular' people.
Someone who only talks to you when they need something.
Someone who ignores you when they're in a group of people.
Someone who tells you they can't hangout, but they hangout with someone else instead.
Someone who never invites you to anything, unless they can't find anyone else to go.
Someone who, without a reason, gossip about you and make fun of you, but say that it was just a joke.
Someone who doesn't answer your texts when you ask them important questions.
Someone who fake laughs when they talk to you.
Someone who tells secrets to another friend, but doesn't tell them to you.

Most of all, someone who does these things, but then when it's just you two, they pretend like nothing's changed. Then they want you to act the same around them, and whether they realize what they do or not, they won't apologize.

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.
