Bostonese 

A term collectively used by the fans of New Kids on the Block to describe the NKOTB members' accents when they speak. Being from Boston, the band members have distinct accents that the fans have embraced and even mimic to an extent.

Practically any word ending in (-er) or (-ar) can be translated into Bostonese by replacing the suffix with (-ah), such as in "glittah" "sweah" or "bettah."
Bostonese: Joey Mac bettah be tweeting on Twittah tonight, or I sweah I might have a heart attack!

Plain English: Joey Mac better be tweeting on Twitter tonight, or I swear I might have a heart attack!

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
