Ferganistic 

A type of approach that some teachers use frequently when teaching a lesson (most common in US studies). It's where a teacher goes so deep into an example it is as if there is no turning back to bring the conversation back to the original topic. This deep example starts to feel more like a crazy tangeant. It often makes students forget what class they are in.
Colleague: What? How did we go from talking about American industrialization to talking about child prostitutes in US history?

Other Colleague: Oh that's just Mr. Phoenix's ferganistic approach to that topic. Don't worry he fully prepares you for the exam.

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?"
