Though some people may think that they are superior to others, and therefore believe only people in Pittsburgh say this, j'eat yet is a sped-up pronunciation of the phrase "did you eat yet?", said throughout the country. It is especially notable in rural South Dakota, Appalachia, and (apparently) Pittsburgh.
When heading north to Brookings, SD on Interstate-29, Bobby saw a sign advertising the Pavillon Bar and Grill. The sign said "J'eat Yet?" and advised Bobby to take exit 130 and turn left. Bobby though to himself, "No, actually, I haven't had a thing to eat since early this morning," and proceded to the Pavilion and ordered a delicious stake and fries.

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.
