When you miss your chance to chat with your friends because they live in a different time zone.

2: Good Timezone! Anyone have ideas on what I should eat for breakfast?

The Timezone is when two people like each other, but hesitate to take the next step, because one of them is not ready to start an official relationship. The person who wants a serious (or official) relationship therefore is stuck in the "Timezone". The timezone may last for a few days to a few years, and within that time the two people either come together or split.
"She told me it's too early to make it official... Well, guess she put me in the timezone"
"I don't know when we will be official . I hate being in the timezone."
A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.
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.
