power call

When you call someone repeatedly because they wont answer the phone. This action usually occurs after one person hangs up on the other person during an argument and the other person has more to say and knows that the person is home or by the phone and they wont pick-up. Mostly used with cell phones.
I can’t believe Joe just hung up on me, and now he won’t answer his phone! I’ll show him and power call him until he answers.

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.
