2021 Texas Power Crises
The 2021 Texas Power Crises was a mass scale power outage that occurred throughout most of Texas from February 10th-20th. This outage was caused by several winter storms and ultimately caused 5 million Texans to lose power, for days or even weeks.
After the event, it is thought that at least 111 people died (mainly from Carbon Monoxide Poisoning and Hypothermia). Furthermore, the storm caused anywhere from 195-295 billion dollars in damage, making it the deadliest disaster in Texas’s History.
While the cause of this disaster was the Snow Storm, many believe that ERCOT, an organization that manages Texas’s electric grid, was responsible. They point out how ERCOT was negligent of the situation as they took few precautions prior to the storm. Either way, however, the impacts of what occurred are still ongoing as some Texans (as of April 14th) are without power.

Fleg
The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.
The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.
The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.

Skeef
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.
