Hook you up

The act of "hooking someone up" is a slang phrase that can refer to one of two things:

1. To help set someone up with a romantic interest in an attempt to act as a matchmaker.
2. To help someone obtain a product, good, or service, usually at a reduced price than what is commonly found. This is usually facilitated by the fact that the person doing the "hooking up" usually has some connections and/or insider knowledge that they can utilize to help obtain the reduced prices.
Bob: Good morning, Stan! So I heard that you're looking to buy a new bicycle?

Stan: Yeah, but I've been scouring the internet all weekend, and all the prices are ridiculous. Can't find any affordable bikes nowadays.

Bob: Actually, I have a friend whose brother runs a bicycle shop in the next town. Want me to hook you up?

Stan: That'd be awesome! Thanks!

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.
