Paranosy
When a person is constantly eavesdropping your conversations (usually a significant other) because they have just done something sneaky and are afraid that you are going to find out from your friends, or they are worried that you are on some sneaky business. Usually people who are paranosy have done a lot of dirt in the past so they are projecting that on to others, or they have had a lot of dirt done to them and they are being hyper-vigilant. For example, they could be in the other room and hear you speaking on the phone and all of a sudden they are right next to you on the couch asking “who is that?” and nonchalantly “oh, what did they have to say?”. Or if you get a text they will try to position themselves so they can see what you are texting without actually grabbing your phone out of your hands to read it. Although there have been extreme cases of phone snatching, or sneak reading.
“Hey Jo I’m gonna call you back in a bit, Billy is being paranosy. Your secrets aren’t safe right now”
“Oh my God Billy what have you done now? Why are you being so paranosy? What are you afraid that I am going to find out?”

I thought she'd need multiple trips to carry her phone, keys, wallet, and Starbucks to her car since she needed the other hand to open the door, but she used her impressive girl grip to carry everything in one hand.

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.
