Diplomining

In Sid Meiers Civilization 6, gathering storm, when the moari settle a coastal city right nest to 3 greek cities and their loyalty tanks. When the city goes rogue you take the 2 ironclads you happened to be moving through area and, going “why not”, take the city only to release it back to the maori. Now your ironclads are stuck there cause the city flips every 10 turns and the maori wont do anything about it, which starts bringing in the 100 diplo points from giving it back to them.

Thus, Diplomining.

“Hey man, why won’t send some of those units to help out in the war?”
“Sorry, I’m diplomining this one spanish city they settled near me.”
“Oh, alright, just make sure to help me later.”

Diplomating

Diplomating is the act of exposing yourself at a bar or other public place and claiming diplomatic immunity. This is commonly done by scummy men claiming to be diplomats.

The man was diplomating in front of us as we grabbed our drinks at the bar.

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.

"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!"

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."

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.

I was folding my clothes and a huge hair spider fell out onto my hand
