plodrock 

The term "plodrock" was originally coined by musician W. Evan Walker in 2010. It refers to amateur music, generally pop/rock, that is dull and unmoving, songs that attempt to move the listener, but, in fact just 'plod' along, not really moving anyone and is usually really dull and boring.
Plodrock usually never hits the airwaves, it usually floats around on demo tapes and friends of bands who are trying to be discovered but never are.

Player 1: Don't try to jump over that wall in the corner.
Player 2: Did you get over it?
*Cut to Player 1's character falling underneath the world*
Player 1: Yeah, but I ploished when I tried it.

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.
