Someone who was a regular nerd but adapted social skills and has a personality.
Comedians, for example, are metanerds because they often were the quiet kid in school but learned how to turn their immense knowledge into accessible humor.
Steve Jobs is a metanerd who combined a knowledge of technology plus a clue as to what people would actually use it for (i.e. not as a computer) and revived Apple from the brink of death by, among other things, introducing iPod and iPhone.
Someone who is so nerdy, that they are considered meganerds. They really like school and/or get good grades. They always go to bed early, usually before 11 o'clock. They have socializing problems- especially texting- and aren't good at flirting. They are also usually scrawny and do not play any sports, (having an IQ greater than how much they weigh), but there are exceptions.
However, the most important quality of a meganerd is that they are very lovable and dorky in their own way <3
"Patrick is such a Meganerd, he keeps talking about school"
"Not as much as a Meganerd as Paul. He went to bed at 10 today."
"Yeah, but I still love him haha."
"Ofcourse. Gotta love our meganerds!"
Nickname given to bales of marijuana thrown overboard or out of airplanes. Origin is reportedly from members of the US Coast Guard in the area of Southern Florida.
A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.
I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.
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.
