Presque Isle

Presque Isle is a small, friendly community in Northern Maine, near the border of Canada. It is typically confused with being in Southern Maine because of its name, which is pretty much French for "Almost an Island". It really couldn't be further from the truth as it is mainly potato farms, windmills, moose, and trees!
Her: Hi! So where are you from?
Me: Up in Presque Isle, Maine :)
Her: Oh! So you're on the coast! I've always wanted to visit there!
Me: Uhh, no. Presque Isle is actually in Northern Maine... in the moose territory... near Canada...
Her: Oh...

Presque Isle

It is a nice smallish city in NORTHERN Maine, and with a population of about 10,000 give or take a hundred, People in Presque Isle are very nice, and yes there are high taxes, but it is better and than living in a junk town, anyways I am from Presque Isle and we have a very good time hunting moose, deer, and etc. oh and being angry at tourists for buying up all of the land, and there are surrounding towns around Presque Isle like Caribou, Mapleton, and others. And I haven't really met people who were truly racist, and only a couple of people who were drunks and stuff. And so Don't make fun of it, because it is true, I have at least a couple of guns in my house for hunting, but so do so many other people in northern maine. And we do have awsome accents. And our High School team is called Wild Cats.

Her: Do you want to go to the mall in Presque Isle?

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."
