Gabagoon
A person who engages in **gabagooning**; a massive fan of *The Sopranos*, *Goodfellas*, or mafia cinema who achieves a state of euphoric, obsessive hyper-fixation while binge-watching mob media.
The act of entering a prolonged, trance-like state of obsessive, continuous stimulation driven entirely by *The Sopranos* or other classic mafia media. Derived from a combination of the classic cured meat "**gabagool**" and the internet slang "**gooning**" (prolonged, hypnotic over-stimulation).
While regular gooning involves a screen, gabagooning specifically requires the presence of tracksuits, heavy Jersey accents, smoked meats, and a minimum of three consecutive hours of Tony Soprano breathing heavily into a microphone.

gabagool
This is an addition to the previous definition, which is half right. "Gabagool" is slang for "capicola." It is not a mispronunciation, but is instead in Napolitan dialect, which is what the Sopranos and many Italian-Americans use.
The rule in this dialect is to chop off ending vowels and to voice unvoiced consonants.

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.
