spider under the table

This phrase means exactly the same as a fly on the wall -- that is, somebody who covertly watches or listens in on something that is not intended for them to see or hear.
From the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode, "Lower Decks":

"How would you like to be a spider under that table?"
"What?"
"A spider under the table."
"Is that like a fly on the wall?"
"I guess so."

Undercover Hitler

A game that you can play in the office where you have to do the hitler salute (One are out and the other across your top lip as the moustache) in full view of all your co-workers. It can be only for a second, but you cant get busted. It is 10 points while your boss is talking directly to you. 25 points while you are adressing a large group of people. all others are 5 points.
Harmless fun !

underoos

Underoos is undergarments containing pictures, graphics of cartoons character(s) and/or movie character(s) on a t-shirt sold with a color brief. These eventually evolved into briefs only and two major underwear manufactures took the concept and branded FunPals/FunGals (Fruit of the Loom) and Showtoons (Hanes). These underwear have the cartoons and/or character(s) printed directly on the brief in either multiple impressions or large single impression. However, these designed were mostly limited to children under the age of 12 with some design prints such as Star Wars with sizes available for slightly older children. In response to popular demand of kids not being able to wear this underwear manufactures such as Old Navy and Gap now market printed briefs to older children. Following the movie Charlie’s Angel a prototype adult version of the original design of underoos was created by Fruit of the Loom and was introduced to their product line, however they were unable to secure a distribution partner to continue into full scale production. Hanes is currently marketing such underwear as Space designs, Ninja Turtles, Hulk and Spiderman designed to older children and seem to be continuing their efforts with some success as they are continuing to introduce different designs.

Underoos in general urban format refer to any underwear other then solid color (that is, red, blue, tightie whities and so forth), including boxer briefs and in some cases boxers that contain cartoon or movie character(s). Since the majority of boxers contain cartoon characters they generally do not get the title underoos since cartoon boxers are not in the minority category of underwear such as briefs.
Should I wear underoos to school today or should I wear my tightie whities?
