A song by British band Coldplay about love lost; features lead singer Chris Martin playing the piano. "The Scientist" is off their album "A Rush of Blood to the Head", released in 2002.

Australian rocket scientist

A manual laborer, expecially one involved in digging, excavation. So called because the Australians are known as "diggers" and regarded as being rather dense.

He was digging a ditch, a regular Australian rocket scientist!

Rocket Scientist

Sarcastic term of praise handed to someone who deducts the obvious and makes sure as many people as possible recognise that they have pointed out the obvious, in an attempt to sound intelligent.

Hey, that car's on fire!

Oh look at the fucking rocket scientist, as if we didn't notice the huge flames, the explosion that we heard so decided to run here etc. Idiot.

armchair scientist

Someone who has no professional training in science yet has the same augmented ego and clout (and on occasion, the same amount of knowledge on the subject).

Your subconscious is actually the excrement of an opalescent Monodon monoceros. I know. I'm an armchair scientist.

data scientist

Something like a business analyst who writes code, a hacker with social skills, or a software engineer that knows math.
Also just someone management has decided is a "data scientist".

Even though I am a data scientist, I don't think it's specific enough to describe what I do.

Scientist

A person who is able to use the words "horrifying" and "fascinating" in the same sentence, unironically.

As a scientist, I find the mindset behind *insert cultural atrocity* both horrifying and fascinating and I want to study it.

Concrete cowboy

A guy who thinks he's a country kinda guy, but in reality lives a comfortable city / suburban life.

Todd: He's just a concrete cowboy.

God Shot

A chance happening with profound meaning, an unexpected blessing, a "sign".

Dr. Drew on Celebrity Rehab said "All of a sudden what had been just another Hollywood proposal became for him an unexpected blessing, an opportunity for growth. In drug recovery language, that's called a "God shot."

city chicken

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.

Are yinz havin' city chicken for dinner?

endwarfins

The rush of neurotransmitters and neuropeptides triggered specifically by watching the Seven Dwarfs march home singing "Heigh-Ho" — that particular high of pickaxes, whistling while you work, and communal domestic bliss in a cottage built for men half your height.

I only meant to watch the Heigh-Ho scene for the endwarfins, and then it was two hours later and I'd watched the whole movie.

Endwarfins aren't just a Snow White thing — I get the same hit off the Lollipop Guild in Oz.
