Katrinacide 

The indescribably emotion the people of New Orleans felt when they returned home to our city once so full of life coked by water, lashed by wind and burned by fryer. A mixture of longing for the home that had once been so alive, pain at having to resort to looting to get baby formula, and faint hope that someday our beloved city would become the woman that she once was.
The broken old woman griped her rosary and tried to fight of the feeling of katrinacide as the Super Dome shook.

Katrinaite

A somewhat derogatory name for evacuees who fled New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina who now live in Houston, TX or Baton Rouge, LA. The name alludes to the burden the evacuees have places on the infrastructure of said cities. And the lack of one and two bedroom apartments for 9 months after the hurricane hit making it impossible for Houstonians to find housing after there lease was up due to inflated apartment costs.
Many use the term to comment on the increased crime and welfare rates in Houston and Baton Rouge.
Make sure you are packing heat going into the Southwest Ghetto area (Houston), there are a lot of Katrinaites living there now and crime has climbed 38%!

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.
