power brows 

A strongly defined eyebrow, often with an accentuated arch. Think: Frida Kahlo. Oftentimes this world can be jarring and difficult, as women (& men) nothing makes us feel more empowered than rocking a strong eyebrow. It lets others know you mean business and your eyebrows are here to settle the score.

PowerBrowsing 

Powerbrowsing:

Verb (used without object), powerbrowsed, powerbrowsing.

to surf the internet at a rapid pace while engaging with the information presented and generating new ideas.

Noun:

The act of browsing the internet with a focus on speed and inspiration, often resulting in free association and the generation of new ideas.

Origin:

The term "powerbrowsing" is a combination of the words "power" and "browsing," and it is thought to have originated in the late 1990s or early 2000s, during the early days of the internet. It is often used in creative fields such as design, writing, and marketing, where the ability to generate new ideas quickly is highly valued.
She spent the afternoon powerbrowsing through the latest news articles and blog posts, quickly absorbing information and generating new ideas for her next project.

I always find it helpful to powerbrowse when I'm feeling stuck creatively, as it often helps me make unexpected connections between seemingly unrelated topics.

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.
