2. Inability to react to any situation with any affect other than "Woah dude, that's intense..." even when faced with legitimately urgent circumstances,
3. Otherworldly appetite for candy and sweets... Of any type, at any time and at any social, physical or emotional cost to himself or others,
4. Preference for human interaction only through online gaming platforms unless in-person, face to face interaction is required to obtain candy or a WiFi password... And even then the interaction is devoid of eye contact.

You run, run for your life as your bum let’s out painful uh oh stinky farts. Your classmates look at you in horror, the delicious smell of old rotten taco bell filling up the air.

You reach your destination and sit down on the toilet, and unleash the beast. You cry painful tears, as the watery substance runs down your crack, with a small plop once it falls into the water. That my friends, is the power of nutella.
Hey Sam, can i borrow The Soggy Nutella in your fridge? It’s for an experiment!

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.
