nco speak

When Non-Commissioned Officers of a military service make up words to sound educated, even though they clearly lack any sophisticated language skills.

This includes terminology such as Irregardless, which is now so mainstream that it appears in Merriam-Webster's dictionary despite the "Ir-" prefix acting as a negation, so the definition shifts to "not regardless" creating helpless confusion among any that actually know how to use English when this particular atrocity is used.

"Irregardless, you need to get that done, Private."

"I'm sorry, I'm an English major so I don't understand your NCO Speak."

The Senior NCO

When you get a man in the mood and confirm he has a raging hard-on, then swipe his phone quickly and call his grandparents on speakerphone. He then has to talk to his grandma/grandpa with a boner.

"I can't call my Papa Ortiz back after that ol' homeless lady gave me The Senior NCO!"

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."
