Short for Yonkers, it is an area included in Westchester, N.Y. where you have two sides - the ghetto and the white people. The line between these two has become blurry but if you go to the southside - Ghetty Square - you'll find where all the gangstas are at. And for sure, in the "good" side you'll find little white kids hanging around every sreet corner such as Central, Yonkers Ave., or any park and they'll either be having sex, getting drunk or high, or all these social activities combined. These white kids have their own "gangs" reppin' the street the chill at thinking they are hard ass niggas and certified gangstas.

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.
