Egghead (1)

Most people respect those who have more than the usual brainpower or intelligence. But one of our expressions-- "egghead"--does not really sound like praise for a person who thinks.
Egghead comes from what as believed to be the common shape of an intellectual's head. An intellectual's head looks like an egg, so the story goes, because all the thinking he does causes his hair to fall out.
