Latent Gay 

Latent Gay. Someone who is transparently gay but believes himself to be straight. Spends all of his time shopping and drinking coffee with straight women who see him as a friend. Wears lots of salmon pink clothes. Inspite of being gay, talks constantly about which woman he'd like to fuck. Often overherd making very stupid, xenophobic/racist comments.

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.
