British Army slang for a cigarette believed to date from around the time of the Second Boer War 1899 – 1902. A gasper was a high tar cigarette, without any sort of filter tip, such as Woodbine or Capstan. They got the name because smoking caused the troops to gasp for breath when engaged in strenuous exercise.

garter snapper 

An outdated term used popularly in the 1920s-1950s that refers to a man who has sex with many different women or has a lot of one night stands. The phrase "garter snapper" originates in this time period due to the fact that women often wore garters to hold up their tights and therefore someone who often "snaps" these garters takes them off, an act commonly preformed during this time period during sex or an affair.
"Did you hear that Connorly went to bed with both Meg and Sally in the same week!"
"Woah, he's quite the garter snapper."
A strange or uncomfortable situation. Often seen in new relationships when there is nothing to say.

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.
