schnarple 

A schnarple is the result of a habit where a piece of 8 1/2" x 11" paper is VERY tightly rolled diagonally into a cylinder. The top 3/7ths is then folded over, bitten with the teeth to crunch down into place and flattened. The top 1 1/2" is then folded over and bitten down and so on until it is folded into a rectangle approximately 1/2" x 2". The creator soon after usually grabs another piece of paper to start again.

A word originally coined circa 2000 by Caleb at CCS, Roseville, CA to describe the classroom creations of then seventh grader, C2010 Joel CS04 USAFA. A habit done by Joel when he is bored, stressed, nervous, listening to a lecture, playing table games, or working on a term paper. Similar to those who pop gum, crack knuckles, twirl hair, or doodle.

Annoying to those (typically teachers, parents, or roommates) who encounter schnarples usually left lying on the floor, around desks (including the CQ), or on tables. Sometimes collected and saved in bottom drawers and in scrapbooks. Annoyance is further compounded when the creator takes unused paper instead of scrap paper that family members have saved explicitly for this purpose.
An example of a schnarple is given in the first paragraph.

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.
