Current Events 

Board #400 on GameFAQs. Now the most active social board. Users generally fall into at least one of the following groups:

CEgals - Female posters. Rarely post anything interesting, but hey, they're girls. Lyke omg! Often followed around by white knights (users who love them) and black knights (users who hate them).

Gimmick users - Users who only post about _one_ thing. Sometimes their username will reflect that. They are known to go through great lengths to somehow fit that one thing into a completely unrelated conversation, but if they're feeling lazy, or just suck at what they do, they'll simply spam topic after topic of their own.

CE"vets" - Posters who also frequent CEchat on AIM. Generally act condescending, but in reality they somehow find joy in being considered annoying as hell by the general populace. Go figure.

Experts - Make a topic about economics, politics, or religion, and these guys will swarm in, preaching from their soapboxes like they all have graduate degrees in said subjects. Ironically, most tend to be high school-aged.

Most other people on CE fit the profile of your typical internet forum user; white suburban kid between 14 and 19, loves bands like Sum 41 and Rise Against, nerdy, and a little bitter.
Current Events - The land of snobbery, spam, and obnoxious picture-signatures.

Current Events (CE) 

A board on GameFAQs with actual, intelligent discussions, unlike Life, the Universe, and Everything. You don't need a high user level to get in, but you can't get in initally either.
I asked how to play Thirteen on CE, it worked; I asked on LUE, no one responded.

Current Event 

You look for a newspaper/online article then write a summary about it or whatever the hell you feel like. Thursdays are the days you DO current events cause they are due friday.

But there are losers who do it an extra day early...
Teacher: "Class do not forget your current event this week!"
Student: "Don't worry I'm special and did it a day early!"

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.
