Sneakflation 

When companies reduce quantity and sometimes quality without changing the appearance of the packaging to avoid raising prices, and pass the cost on to less mindful consumers. They may also have hidden fees or changes in services or surcharges that are on top of the retail price, such as shipping cost changes. In some cases, the reduction in quality or guarantee reduces the useful life or makes maintaining the product or service expensive. Social media and streaming services may keep prices lower by adding advertisements. Larger companies may change the terms of the credit card interest rates especially those with the company credit card.
Sneakflation has crept into the streams services where programs are interrupted in the worst way with obnoxious adds, and obscene product placement in movies.

speakulation 

1. when someone with a microphone hijacks the peace and quiet of a public space with unwanted, unintelligible, or superfluous information.
I finally got settled in my seat in the back of the plane. I pulled out my book and began to get back into the complex and entertaining storyline. That is when the "speakulation" began spewing out of the speaker above my head. The flight attendant, then the pilot, then the flight attendant again, over and over every thirty seconds for most of the flight, I was bombarded with unintelligible, and unwanted information that actually hurt my ears to listen to.

Sneakylationship 

When you and another person are fucking but don't want anyone to know about it but it's so close to being a relationship that you can't tell the difference.

Sneakuationship 

When your situationship has to be carried out secretly, it puts the “sneak” in your situationship, making it a “sneakuationship.”
“Me and my new girl get along great, I just don’t think it’s going to last, it’s exhausting not knowing when I will see her, and not being able to go out in public together. It’s like I’ve landed in some kind of sneakuationship.”
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.
