Front-story 

Purposefully creating a large chunk of back-story which has a different tone to a character's defined personality in order to justify a sudden change in behaviour. Often when a character is about to be written out of a TV series.
They just added a load of front-story to her character, she's obviously going to be written out.

Tonight's episode brought in a whole load of front-story.

front story 

The same as your back story only different. The direction is different. Your front story is Vuja De and your back story is Deja Vu. Since Deja Vu is been there done that then Vuja De is going there doing that. If people don't know your front story then they can't come alongside you and help you because doing so helps them.
In order to realize that we have enough overlap to help each other going forward after just meeting I'd need to know as much about your front story as possible.

front-lawn storefront

A.k.a. "yard sale". Often you can get good bargains on good-quality household items there, but you hafta always watch out for damaged/defective/worn-out items and inflated prices.
Brick-and-mortar shops do indeed usually charge a lot more for stuff than a front-lawn storefront, but yard-sale items usually don't come with a warranty or money-back guarantee, so it's kind of a trade-off..

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.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"

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.
