halfway crook
An impossibility or oxymoron. You either are or are not a crook. You can't steal a little bit from someone and be called a partial thief. You have taken, you are a thief, period. Therefore to say someone is a halfway crook is to refer to an impossibility.
This term was made popular by Mobb Deep in the song "Shook Ones" when they called whack niggahs out who were "Scared to death, scared to look, you shook, cuz ain't no such thing as Halfway Crooks"

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.
