dentist appointment 

The excuse for escaping an awkward social moment, boring party, bad day at work, or any other situation you'd rather not be a part of. The intent is to express disdain for the situation - saying you have a dentist appointment when you clearly don't (because it's nighttime, or the weekend, or whatever) amplifies the effect and sarcasm. Synonymous with "this sucks, and I'm leaving".

Used in speech, the dentist appointment can either be how you explain your departure from your current environment, or what you say to someone while giving a recap of the situation and why you left.
Jill: "Hey Matt! Leaving already?"
Matt: "Yeah. Dentist appointment."
Jill: "...but it's 8 p.m. on a Sunday."

"I was trying to watch the movie, but then Sue and Mike started making out, so I had a dentist appointment."

Dentist Appointment 

When you're having sex and you pull out and nut on the toothbrush and she brushes her teeth with it.
Guy: "Yo how was your date last night"
Friend: "It was sick I took her to a dentist appointment"
Guy: "Damn, she must have some pearly whites now"

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."
