baller on a budget 

A phrase used as a noun overall. An individual who seemlessly combines the social attributes of a "baller" (one who demonstrates a dispensable income at social gatherings which automatically lead to popularity and desirability with both the male and female members of any given social group in any given social situation) and a budget-minded individual who aspires to achieve a similar level of popularity and desirability without having a dispensable income on hand.
Have you ever seen a Pontial Fiero (1984-1988) with a Lamborghini body kit? From 100' away, it looks like a Lamborghini, but when it drives by, it sure sounds like a US Mail Delivery Van. That's a baller on a budget! ;-)

Have you ever seen people rock a 1ct. cubic-zirconia earring? That right there is a baller on a budget.

Have you ever seen a car with a front mount "interfooler" instead of an "intercooler"?

If you live on the "fringes" of Beverly Hills, and you still tell people you live in Beverly Hills, but it's really just normal Los Angeles -- guess what, you're a baller on a budget!

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.
