The Pretty Reckless 

The Pretty Reckless are an American hard rock band. Their sound is like that of classical rock n' roll blended with a modern twist, and occasionally with a grunge sound complimented by great guriffs. The members consist of former TV starlet, Taylor Momsen who stands as frontwoman and songwriter. Ben Phillips, the lead guitarist, who has an old sexy classic rock voice and tributes to the band's songwriting. Mark Damon is their bassist, who stands at over 6ft. and doubles as security for the band, according to Taylor in an interview. Lastly is the spectacular drummer, Jamie Perkins. Apart from his dazzling drumming skills, his beautiful beard and matching hair leaves many Zombies--the name fans of 'The Pretty Reckless'--in complete awe.

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.
