Boob-O-Lanterns are created by a) applying opaque substance(s) (e.g. electrical tape, marker, paint, string/rope, chocolate, etc) to breasts and b) applying a light (flashlight, phone light, etc) to the bottom (optimal), top or sides of the breasts in an environment with very low light levels. The results are typically best with augmented breasts (ie saline, silicone, etc) but can be accomplished in natural, low density breasts. CAUTION: be careful to use low heat light sources (e.g. LED lights, camera phone lights) to avoid a potential burn to delicate skin.

The row of LEDs under the main headlights on any new Audi. They always seem to be lit, no matter how bright the sun is on any particular day.

A belief that political miracles are achieved by sheer will force. Proponents of the Green Lantern Theory have attributed failure and compromise to a lack of presidential willpower. Matthew Yglesias came up with the Green Lantern Theory of Geopolitics* to ridicule conservatives who claimed "the only thing limiting us is a lack of willpower" in foreign policy. The Green Lantern Theory was later applied to the Obama Administration who seemed to lack the will power to make the radical changes in policy such as universal health care, lowering medical costs, banking reform, and peaceful negotiations that people had hoped for., especially after the Republicans took over the US House in 2011.
Bernie supporters are big proponents of Green Lanternism and fail to recognize this kind of “Presidentmania” where the President can get anything done if he really wanted to, fails to take into account the significant amount of bureaucracy legal barriers, and the number players the president has to deal with such as legislators, special interests and Jurists who often do everything in their power to block the president from making these achievements.

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.
