I-Man Syndrome

An ailment cause by the repeated return to the same shitty, overpriced bar because it's close by and no one can think of anywhere else to go. And there's probably a cover at Brennan's.

What the hell are we doing here? This shitty music is way too loud, old women keep stepping on my feet and I just paid $6.50 for a bottled Sam Adam's. Ugh, I think I'm coming down with I-Man Syndrome.

I'm Spider-Man Syndrome

When Spider-Man fans try to rationalize that Spider-Man would beat any other superhero because he is Spider-Man and nothing more, when realistically almost any other superhero would strangle Spider-Man with his own asshole. Similar to "I'm Batman Syndrome" see conman4618

"Spider-Man would totally beat Superman because he can stick to walls!"
"Spider-Man would totally beat Wolverine because he can be strong too!" Obviously suffers from "I'm Spider-Man Syndrome"

I’m He-Man Syndrome

Whenever a troll realizes he can one-up everybody by acting and emulating he-man emulating the power and self-confidence of He-man, all the while censoring online the animated content of his minions or group so that they never actually see the Real He Man, which would totally kill him on its face, physically speaking, once they saw the abs, the face, and natural popularity of the original He-Man. Such infected individuals live solely to obliterate He-man and every digital footprint of him off the face of the universe, or else they’re nothing at all.

“Drats, that’s skeletor! Turn that off!” said the botnet administrator clinically diagnosed with I’m He-man Syndrome, in another close call with fate.

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.

"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!"

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.

I was folding my clothes and a huge hair spider fell out onto my hand
