Slackmester 

A period of time during a school year when academic responsibilities are pushed aside in favor of non-academic pursuits. In slacker terms, an entire semester of going to the bar every night instead of studying. See also, alcoholism.

While it may happen at any point in a college, graduate, or high school career, typically a slackmester occurs in the last semester of a given school period, when students suddenly realize how pointless hard work really is.

Emo sickness 

The emo sickness is when someone is not ok. During the period of time when someone has the sickness, they go through hard decisions that could decide their fate of how contagious it is. So people can get it from others which could lead to a large spread of the emo. The original spread of the emo sickness starts in the medieval ages, but it was gotten rid of. Now recently a new source formed -- a middle school teacher called Victoria. All ages suffer from this deathly disease, but ages 1-19 and ages 40-100 suffer from it the most. There is yet to be a cure found.
"Are you ok?"
"No I have the emo sickness"
"Ohh that explains 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.
