spooky kids 

Derogatory term used by Goths to refer to any highschool poser attempting to emulate the gothic culture without knowing anything about it circa '95-2000 during the Marilyn Manson MTV epidemic of that period. Characteristics of spooky kids:

1. Highschool age or under.
2. Claims that Marilyn Manson is gothic, as well as citing Korn or Limpbizkit or any other popular on MTV at the time aggro bands.
3. Bauwho?
4. Typically terrible white clown face-paint makeup, black lipstick. Emmulates the movie the Crow.
5. Repulsed by Ravers yet looking just as riduclous as them.
6. Unaware of the history of the culture or anything before 1995.

Spooky Kids 

Adolescent children of middle class upbringing with nothing to rebel against, dressing in all black with useless zippers and heavy eye makeup (males included). Spooky Kids can be seen being dropped off at the mall via minivan and congregating in front of the Hot Topic.

Spooky Kids are the next link in the evolutionary chain of losers. Once known as “Goths”, Spooky Kids are separated from the Goths by musical taste. Moving from black metal bands like Venom and Obituary, they can be heard listening to Emo and Emo-Core.
"Band geeks are too easy, lets beat the crap out of the Spooky Kids!"

spookykid 

A devotee of Marilyn Manson, Slipknot, etc., usually complaining about "preps", wearing tacky clothes from Hot Topic, and pretending to be dark and scary. Frequently misaken for goths by people (including themselves) who wouldn't know "goth" if it bit them on the ass.

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!"

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.
