A self-professed Fan of a sports team who seems to actually Hate that same team. Fan + Hater = FATER. This person is most likely employing a defense mechanism against the sting of defeat by being so down on everything the team does. The largest collection of Faters can be found on message boards devoted to their favorite team. After big wins, Faters cite overwhelming evidence that it was pure luck. After tough losses, Faters crucify the players and coaches. Invariably, Faters hate the team's star player the most.
Fan: Hey man, big win for the team last night!
Fater: Yeah, they got lucky.

Fan: We won by 30 points.
Fater: Yeah but it should have been 40. "Star player" is awful and he shoots too much.
Fan: He shot 60% and scored 35 points.
Fater: Yeah, but did you see how long his shorts were though? We are never going to win a championship with shorts like that. We probably won't win another game all year.

un-fater 

an un-fater is someone who considers all the what would have beens, and does not recognise that there is only one possible sequence of events through time.
an un-fater would say: "If I caught that bus I would have been on time for work"

whereas a fater realises that this option should not even be considered as fate would have it that the next bus is to be caught as there are infinite unforeseen events that could occur.

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
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.
