Duct Tape Teen and Bubblegum Teen
The main two types of teenagers; other subcultures and labels branch off from these two.
A Bubblegum Teen is a run-of-the-mill teenager. These people tend to be self-conscious about everything and very superficial. They happen to be addicted to being popular and pop culture. Usually, their conversations will consist of sex, beauty, whining, and boyfriends/girlfriends, and use internet slang in everyday life. They usually follow every trend and try to fit in. They scorn uniqueness, but encourage groupthink and conformity.
On the other hand, a Duct Tape Teen doesn't give a @#%& about labels and does what they want. Duct Tape Teens understand the concepts of originality and individuality and embrace them. Like rolls of duct tape, they are all different. They come from all walks of life, from different backgrounds, and in all shapes and sizes. Each has his or her own thoughts and beliefs, none dictated by others.

Boffin
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.
