Plastic Lasers 

Verbal and emotional actions when being gaslighted by someone. Overly dramatic crying,

My ex would hit me with the PLASTIC LASERS. She'd go days without calling or texting me and when I'd ask her where she's been, she'd start crying saying 'you're so clingy NOW, but where are you when I need you.' Called me selfish and narcissistic. Never answered MY questions tho. Complete one-eighty on me. ."

Plastic Lasers 

Someone gaslights you into oblivion with false feelings and false transgressions; so much so that it makes you question your sanity.
My ex hit me with the plastic lasers. She wouldnt answer her phone for days and when I hit her up like "where've you been?!" She'd cry her eyes out saying she goes out because I don't want to spend time with her; that I'm 'selfish and 'superficial' but she knows I have football practice and I'm super focused on my scholarship. I told her that I had priorities but she was like "that never happened." and that I'm " ignoring her needs." Complete one-eighty the conversation .

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.
