hoop-skirt 

A huge broad funnel-shaped hopper-like device that's designed to fit down over-top of a basketball hoop, and to catch virtually all the shots so that they'll go through the hoop.
A standard hoop-skirt is made from heavy canvas or other thick easily-visible material, and is just a novelty/gag item that's intended to merely cause observers to snicker and roll their eyes as they watch the players score a hoop almost every time (similar to when a backyard jokester uses lengths of stove-pipe for guiding the ball when playing croquet). "Specialty" or "stealth" models of hoop-skirt are available, too, though --- they are made from ultra-transparent and non-reflective material in order to be virtually undetectable, and can be used to help "level the playing field" during actual team-competition games; they allow the less-capable/practiced side to increase their chances of beating --- or at least scoring a lot closer to --- their better-skilled opponents.

girl grip 

The ability girls and women have developed to hold several items at once in one hand. The skill has been developed due to the lack of pockets in women's clothing.
I thought she'd need multiple trips to carry her phone, keys, wallet, and Starbucks to her car since she needed the other hand to open the door, but she used her impressive girl grip to carry everything in one hand.

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!"
