Technophrenic 

Technophrenic is the Schizophrenic behavior of people who appear to be talking to themselves, but are really using a Bluetooth earpiece to talk to their stockbroker, friend, fellow work, ex-wife, dog, children, podiatrist, or anyone else who will stay on the line with them while they roam about doing God only knows what.
He ain't crazy, he's only Technophrenic. See the Bluetooth in his ear. He's yelling at his {Insert choice here}.

Technophenia 

Technophenia is a condition in which a techno geek exhibits rapid changing technology fan boy enthusiasm for the latest technology fad before moving on and bashing that same technology.

Often found to be an early adopter of social media sites and as quickly deleting their account only to return again when new functionality is introduced.

The term is a tribute The Who's classic rock album Quadrophenia and the protagonist Jimmy's four personalities.

Technochronic 

A person who always keeps having strange unexplainable issues with their computers, smartphones and other devices etc., not because it is their fault or he/she is dumb. (not to be confused with technophobe)
There is always a (at least one) technochronic person in every company with whom the IT support just doesn't wanna deal with. You just cant find how to fix their IT issue which no one else is having.

Technophrenia

A pathological state of detachment from social reality, most often in the technological elite class, caused by extreme insulation due to incredible wealth and existing in an echo chamber where the correctness of the afflicted individual is continuously affirmed, leading to grandiose, impractical uses of influence and resources in pursuit of solving problems that do not exist.
"Tim Cooks technophrenia is out of control, he actually believes that people will wear his goggles into meetings."

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.
