Loosen up 

Something somebody tells you when they want to see you wreck your life for their amusement.
The guy was a responsible kid who liked who he was the way he was at one time, but he tried to loosen up and live on the wild side because he thought he might have missed out on something, and ended up being certain that being a poser wasnt for him, he tried it, so he knew it was all done to get money while telling people you dont care what they think even when you care more than anybody else what people think. Everybody cares what people think, and that's one of the things you end up facing no matter how long you keep telling people you dont care what they think. You end up facing them, and they end up facing you.

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.
