John Mayer
John Mayer is a controversial artist known for being a douche from 2002-2013. However, once he realized what a douche he was and moved out to Montana and away from Hollywood, the man finally focused on the music and the meaning rather than the ladies and the swooning. His three latest albums are works of art and he’s trying to be a better person. In 2019, it is safe to say he’s now a hilarious and nice dude (at least as he appears to the public). Catch him on Instagram live or on tour, seems like he’s always doing one of the two.
Person1: “I hate John Mayer because his music is overplayed and he’s pretty gross. I’m sick of hearing ‘waiting on the world to change’”
Person2: “That was years ago! Have you given ‘Born and Raised’ a try? Also, he hasn’t had a terrible breakup since 2013!”

John Mayer
Long were the nights when my days once revolved around you
Counting my footsteps,
Praying the floor won't fall through, again
My mother accused me of losing my mind,
But I swore I was fine, you paint me a blue sky
And go back and turn it to rain
And I lived in your chess game,
But you changed the rules every day
Wondering which version of you I might get on the phone
Tonight, well I stopped picking up, and this song is to let you know why
*chorus*
Well maybe it's me and my blind optimism to blame
Maybe it's you and your sick need to give love then take it away
And you'll add my name to your long list of traitors who don't understand
And I'll look back and regret how I ignored when they said "run as fast as you can"
*chorus*
I should've known
You are an expert at sorry,
And keeping the lines blurry
Never impressed by me acing your tests
All the girls that you've run dry
Have tired, lifeless eyes
'Cause you burned them out
But I took your matches before fire could catch me,
So don't look now, I'm shining like fireworks over your sad, empty town
Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone
Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
The girl in the dress, cried the whole way home.
I see it all now that you're gone
Don't you think I was too young to be messed with?
The girl in the dress wrote you a song
You should've known, you should've known
Don't you think I was too young? You should've known
Counting my footsteps,
Praying the floor won't fall through, again
My mother accused me of losing my mind,
But I swore I was fine, you paint me a blue sky
And go back and turn it to rain
And I lived in your chess game,

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.
