20 egghead

полит жарг

"яйцеголовый"

Уничижительное прозвище интеллектуала. Впервые было использовано во время избирательной кампании 1952 по отношению к кандидату от Демократической партии Э. Стивенсону [Stevenson, Adlai], чья лысая голова, по форме напоминавшая яйцо, была притчей во языцех у его противников. В ответ Стивенсон с юмором перефразировал К. Маркса: "Яйцеголовые всех стран, соединяйтесь! Вам нечего терять, кроме своих желтков" ["Eggheads of the world unite; you have nothing to lose but your yolks."]
