Golden Frying Pan

The most expensive weapon in Team Fortress 2. This weapon, as the name implies, is a golden version of the Frying Pan. Any enemy you kill with the pan will become gold statues instead of scattered body parts (or gibs) or ragdolls. According to the official Team Fortress 2 Wiki, the only way to obtain a Golden Frying Pan is a very rare drop received for completing an Advanced or Expert Tour of Duty in Mann Up mode. If you receive the golden pan drop, the game will display a message alert saying "(user) just received a Golden Frying Pan!"

According to backpack.tf, the golden pan is worth 1620-1780 keys, or $3153 to $3860. If you do receive it, just get ready for scammers or random people to add you for trades...

TF2 System: "Bob just received a Golden Frying Pan!"
Bob: "… HOLY SHI-"

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
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.
