John Perry Barlow

Co-founder of the Electronic Frontier Foundation and well known (no pun intended) activist/poet/essayist/lyricist for the band the Grateful Dead. His works include many articles, essays, and speeches on digital freedom, and the many injustices of the government against the computing community. Among his most notable exploits, he has been a fellow at Harvard Law School's Berkman Center for Internet and Society, and he was at one time a good friend of John F. Kennedy Jr.
Anyone who says they are against large corporations or the government monopolizing copyright and freedom of expression should look up John Perry Barlow's "A Declaration of the Independence of Cyberspace", among his many other works on the subject

He moved from scotland to america when he was 8/9 years old and changed to an american accent due to being bullied.

He can switch from american to scottish in a blink of an eye. Bi-lingual.

He seems to be able to do almost everything at once and never sleeps!

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.
