'An extreme romanist believes that the Romans are the most strong, intelligent, sacred, rare, as well as beautiful race on Earth, throughout history-created by The Roman God of War, Mars and that if anyone, especially a foreigner harms them, they should be stoned to death by a crowd of angry Roman civilians. They also believe that everyone on Earth should practise Roman culture and have Roman values. Also, that the whole world should be ruled by the ressurected Roman empire and the descendants of the barbarians should be dead to avenge what wrong they did to the Romans. Lastly, they worship the immortal ressurected ghosts of the Roman emperors as gods and believe that the Romans should be worshipped by foreigners as demigods.'

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.
