napinar
I thought the class I was attending would be very exciting and informative but quickly turned into an extended napinar.

napkinart
Any art that is done on an ephemeral item such as a napkin
or paper table cloth. Often left behind with the check at modest restaurants, napkinart can have surprising value.
There's a story told in the movie, "The Paper," about journalists celebrating the Olympics in Spain. When the bill comes, it is far too much to afford, but a little old man sitting in the corner signals the waiter and then scribbles something on a napkin. That napkin pays the bill because the little old man was Picasso!
Then there's the true story of Basquiat, whose career as an
artist was brief but bright, as he died very young. He was known to dash off his creations on such things a matchbooks,
and they went for thousands of dollars. These, too would
be considered napkinart.

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.

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."
