The phobia of being scared. If you have it, you're literary scared of being scared... It's like, phobiception.
You're scared that you'll be scared, but then you realise you're scared of being scared, so then you're scared and then you're even more scared, because you just realised you're scared of being scared and that makes you even more scared which makes you so scared that you're very very scared which completely scares you and you're so scared of being scared that you can't help being scared, but you're scared that you are scared... That's phobophobia for you :/

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.
