"Ewoking" (backslide or moonwalk) is a portmanteau word that combines the word "Ewok" with the word "moonwalk". It is a dance technique that presents the illusion of the dancer being pulled backwards while attempting to walk forward while a performer is dressed in the costume suit of an Ewok. It became popular around the world after it was executed on live television on MSNBC's Today Show Star Wars themed episode. See: drunk Ewoks on MSNBC's Today Show. Ewoks are a fictional species of teddy-bear-like hunter-gatherers that inhabit the forest moon of Endor from the movie Star Wars Episode VI.
Thomas was Ewoking on Halloween when he decided to Ewok his way to restaurant Akli in Montreal for a delicious shawarma.

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?"
