Great Leap Forward 

Something Mao Zedong tried to do but failed horribly, so now no Chinese person wants to talk about it because it ruins their background (or maybe it's just cause Chinese people don't know what you mean)
American Citizen: Hey, remember when Mao Zedong tried to do the "Great Leap Forward" but failed horribly?

Chinese Guy: 我不知道您再说什么 (Translation: I don't know what you're talking about)

The Great Leap Forward 

The above title is one of the Mao Zedong's chronic brain farts.
No government has killed more people through incompetence and stupitidy than the People's Republic of China, chink commies are in a class of their own. This utopian leap took place from 1958 to 1962 where the intension was rapidly industrialize the country by producing steel with primitive backyard furnaces caused one of the largest famine in human history – no one knows the exact death toll but estimates range from 15 to 55 million who starved to death during its worst years 59 - 61. And of course, according to the official truth the scapegoats were like always "hostile western forces."

Deng Xiaoping combined Mao's ruthlessness without his incompetence, Xi Jinping, a.k.a. Winnie the Pooh kills too, he has focused on the Uyghur minority and of course other regular stuff like the genocide in Tibet.
The great leap forward is not a long jump term.

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."

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.
