New Year's resolution 

n: An assessment of, and often delusional attempt to correct, one's shortcomings. Typically made on a day that is arbitrary except that it begins a new year on the standard Gregorian Calendar. Given the arbitrary nature of the date and the sudden change of lifestyle demanded by most resolutions, it should not be surprising that most resolutions are abandonded by the start of the next year. Fortunately the next New Year gives a person the opportunity to make the same resolution again.
A common New Year's resolution: get fit, get thin, get hot, get laid.

A common outcome: stay out of shape, stay fat, stay ugly, masturbate.

New Year's Resolution 

The bull shit that people say they will when they are hammered 10 mins before the New Years comes. Most of this is forgotten by the 3rd of January.

Most of these "resolutions" are things like, lose weight, eat better, eat less, get a better job other then that casher job at Mc Donalds. Most of these never happen, but when the planets are alined right, still none of these happen.

People who don't have problems in life say, "Fuck that shit, I'm getting a sandwich."
Person with problems: "My New Year's Resolution is to reach a weight under 300 lbs."

Person without problems: "Fuck that shit, I'm getting a sandwich."

New Year's Resolution Warrior

Those people who make a new year's resolution to get in shape. they can be seen sporting new workout gear as they recently purchased a long term gym membership, of which will only get used for about 3 weeks before they quit. they are known for doing exercises incorrectly, being ass clowns, getting in your way and spend a lot of time socializing. they are typically very out of shape and are defined as physically unimpressive.
I would like to welcome the new year's resolution warriors to the gym. I appreciate you taking my normal parking spot, locker, and shower. You do look great in your new workout gloves and book to write down your three sets of bicep curls. The highlight was the 40 something couple making out between sets of incline dumbbell press. Hope you enjoy three weeks before you quit.

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.
