spygate

A term referring to the scandal surrounding the New England Patriots when they were caught filming the New York Jets' defensive signals during their meeting in week one of the 07 season. The team and coach Bill Belichick were fined and the Pats had to forfeit their a draft choice in 08 because of the incident.

Joe: "The Patriots are only good because they cheat. Spygate proves they can't win without cheating."

Tim: "Are you retarded. Have you seen how they've played since then. Do you think they needed an advantage against the Jets. Besides every team does it but the Pats got caught."

Joe: "Yeah you're right."

spygate

The term used to define when the 2007 New England Patriots were Videotaping the New York Jets defensive signals.

If the 2007 Patriots go undefeated, there may be an asterisk next to it in the record books, due to the spygate incident.

SPYGATE

The scandal surrounding Donald Trump’s false claim that the FBI embedded one or more spies in his campaign.

SPYGATE isn’t going well for Trump. If there were any evidence that spies were embedded in his campaign, the rest of the Republicans would be screaming bloody murder. But crickets. Except Lindsay Graham, who said “An informant is not a spy.”

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.
