grumployee
Usually a narcissistic, grumpy co-worker who blames everyone from management to his co-workers, while boosting his already over-inflated ego. Grumployees think of themselves as vastly superior to other workers, and frequently show contempt towards their colleagues. However, deep down, grumployees are very insecure, and are terrified of being put into a work environment where they may appear vulnerable. Usually, grumployees achieve their coveted status in an organization by creating their own turf and fiercely protecting their "secret knowledge", thereby acting as gatekeepers, while presenting themselves to managament as being indispensable. Usually, they stay in one company forever, as they cannot risk change. A new job would require them to start from square one and be vulnerable, which is what grumployee hates the most. Grumployees are often found in Information Technology, but can also exist in other fields, such as Finance, Insurance, Real Estate, etc.
"Patrick is such a grumployee. All he does is stand in the hallway, complaining about the incompetent managers, while keeping all the software training books and CDs under lock and a key, so not a single one of us new hires can learn anything about our proprietary software"

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.

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."
