Gay Petty is the next level in true accension into being a master at the petty arts. This is shown in many different ways. It can be you passively aggressively ignoring an ignorant buffoon who is trying to tear you down. Some examples include but are not limited to:

1. Hiding the person's car keys.
2. Damaging a makeup pallet.
3. Backhanded complements

Etc.

The important rule of being gay petty is to do it with style and flare. Leave their jaws dropped walking with the confidence of owning that cat walk in the latest fashion. Slay queen slay!
Person 1: Man this person just isn't getting it, they are obnoxious and just a headache.

Person 2: This calls for the ultimate form of petty.

Person 1: No, they aren't ready.

Person 2: Watch me bitch it's time for being gay petty.

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.
