The Twilight Zone 

There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It’s a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow - between science and superstition. And it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call......

The Twilight Zone 

noun; Forks, Washington State. It's scary because it's associated with a certain pack of sparkly vampires, wolfmen, and a Mary Sue. If you're going anywhere nere the Twilight Zone, I wish you luck.
Dude, my dad got a transfer, and I'm moing to the Twilight Zone.
I pity you. Don't get turned into a fairy-vampire.

The Twilight Zone 

A terrible and suffocating atmosphere, specifically pertaining to those generated by the whole high school scene (i.e., Sadie's, Homecoming, spirit rallies, the SPL, etc.). Usually something lame and pathetic occurs which makes one cringe at the sight.
"Nicole and I were shamefully hanging out at the SPL in my car and having a sad good time when these teenage boys started doing pop a wheelies on their bikes in the middle of the parking lot at, like, 11:00 at night. We couldn't even believe what we were seeing. Then the windows starting fogging up from our incessant laughter, which made the whole experience even more surreal. And the whole thing was illuminated by an orange street light. It was like The Twilight Zone."

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.
