Compton recoil electrons are electrons knocked from orbitals of an atom usually by gamma radiation from a nuclear explosion.
These electrons create a brief current which results in an electromagnetic pulse or EMP which can damage or destroy unshielded electronic equiptment, mainly microchips. Such an event taking place at high altitude would result in wide scale electrical damage.
"our electrical equiptment was damaged as a result of compton recoil electrons from the EMPblast"

"I went with this new girl to see a flick last night, I nearly fell asleep. It was so so bad I don't even remember the name of the shit! What a waste of electrons!"
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
