Hot Topic-core 

Definition given to a band who used to be decent, then sold out completely and ends up releasing overproduced albums which are shit in comparison. Also refers to bands who's goal just seems to sell a ton of merch and being featured at Hot Topic instead of their music.

hot topic-core 

An umbrella term for all -core bands utilized in order to prevent confusion when discussing said bands and their detrimental effect on music everywhere.
Guy 1: "Man, all these deathcore, metalcore, shitcore, applecore, gymcore bands... they're really crapping on music these days."

Guy 2: "I hear ya. There are too many to keep up with. I believe there's a general term for that music: 'hot topic-core'. Works perfectly to describe all bands who play that stuff if you ask me and any other sane person."

Guy 1: "I can not find any logical inconsistencies in your argument, good sir."
To take something small, that doesn't quite qualify as a theft. Probably from the Danish "skæv" or the Dutch "scheef", both of which are pronounced similarly, meaning "askew, or not quite right'. To change an item's ownership without permission, but only something small and of little worth.
"I skeefed an apple off the neighbor's tree." "I skeefed some chips outta your bag when you looked away." "Don't skeef my chair when I go to the bathroom."

Hair spider

A tight, tangled knot of loose hair and lint that forms inside clothing during the clothes dryer cycle. It typically hides inside garments, causing an annoying lump or a phantom tickling sensation against the skin until it is found or falls out onto the floor during folding.

-Dude, the Madden 2006 images they showed at E3 were bullshots. It doesn't look nearly as good as they said.
