Paraventure 

An extremely boring and poorly constructed paragraph about a personal adventure. Often peppered with internet acronyms such as "LOL" in an effort to raise the interest levels from absolute zero to just above.

A badly thought through personal bloggers paragraph about their latest "adventure". Often so boring as to appear only 2-3 times after telling everyone they've started a personal blog then to disappear into the void following a complete lack of interest from peers and friends. In some cases paraventures can lead to premature death from loneliness or worse, facebook defriending and social network rejection or "hiding" by peers.

Paraventure's are typically about as mentally stimulating as the feeling in ones legs after the spinal chord has been severed just above the waistline.

Day 45: This is John's mum again. Did John have any friends or tell anyone he was going away ? We're really worried!! What does LOL mean ?

Day 2405: This blog has been terminated due to redirections to malicious malware sites.

The flip side: the rest of society:

Paraventure's are great aren't they? It keeps the bores off the street and out of the pubs as they cook up their next mind numbing paraventure. Keep wifi out of pubs campaign 2011: no proto-novellists, bloggers, or people who dont want to converse in person thank you. Anyone fancy a pint ?

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.

n. A screenshot fabricated by a company to misrepresent the graphics of a game; a combination of the words bullshit and screenshot.

Originated from Penny Arcade, a popular gaming webcomic.
-Have you seen Madden 2006 for the Xbox 360? The graphics are gonna be awesome!
-Dude, the Madden 2006 images they showed at E3 were bullshots. It doesn't look nearly as good as they said.
