A portmanteau of the abbreviation LA, for Liberal Arts, and 'tard. Pronounced "lay-tard", LAtard is a pejorative term for a person studied in the Arts and Humanities. They typically believe themselves to be more "cultured", "creative", "open-minded", and "erudite" than most people but lack the skills to work a basic calculator, let alone engineer a bridge.

Not to be confused with Libtard.
There's a flame war between the LAtards and STEMlords on Reddit again.

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.
