F.O.L.O. (Fear Of Losing Orders) 

"F.O.L.O." or “#FOLO” is an acronym for "Fear of Losing Orders". It refers to the emotions felt by people waiting in their homes for packages to be delivered. These emotions range from excitement and apprehension about when the parcel will arrive, to the boredom of waiting at home all day for a parcel, or annoyance as you stare out the window on a sunny day that you’re unable to enjoy.

Symptoms:

Fear of taking showers in case you miss the doorbell;

Incessantly looking through door viewer or window for delivery drivers;

Over-sensitivity to any noise that may resemble a delivery van;

Constant refreshing of delivery apps to check for updates.

Fortunately, there’s a solution for F.O.L.O. Systems like smart intercoms that allow people to answer their apartment intercoms from anywhere and remotely buzz visitors into their building with a smartphone.
“I haven’t left the house all day, I have major F.O.L.O. (Fear Of Losing Orders) ”
“My old intercom is giving me F.O.L.O. (Fear Of Losing Orders) ”
“Looks like they have a bad case of F.O.L.O. (Fear Of Losing Orders) ”

Long Term Laziness 

Often abbreviated to simply “LTL” this majestic phrase is to explain oneself for doing something that is short term work for the eventual greater good of being lazy. For example one might be standing in a situation that calls for sitting. If one is doing this it’s quite clear that this genius is a lazy acumen for spotting that he’s going to arise very soon so he might as well remain standing as to not have to deal with the aggravating work of getting up. The term was first originated in 2008 by Vince Wilfork who was once told to take a knee but didn’t because “LTL”
Sammy: Yo why you standing bro?
Noah: Bro LTL you know you’re just going to have to stand right back up again
Sammy: That’s facts bro but what does LTL mean?
Noah: Long Term Laziness
Sammy: Aight Bet!

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.
