manila folder

The manila folder is a holder designed to contain documents and paperwork. It is generally formed by folding a large sheet of stiff card in half. Though traditionally beige, sometimes other colors are used to differentiate categories of files.

The manila component of the name comes from manila hemp or abaca, from which manila folders were originally made. Manila hemp is a type of fiber that comes from a relative of the banana plant. Commonly used for ropes, paper products, and coarse fabrics, manila hemp is indigenous to the Philippines and gets its name from the country's capital.

"Pare, do you have some manila folders to hold my documents?"

Manila Folder

Someone that’s so bland, vapid, and empty in the head that they can only serve as a tool to put things in. They can also lack personality, but it’s not a requirement for classification. Usually referring to a person of the whitest of heritages, but can be of any heritage (especially if they have a colonialist mentality)

Most of the comments I’ve seen defending Trump on social media are written by Manila Folders that couldn’t compose a complete sentence to save their lives.

MANILA FOLDER

When you are performing oral on your Filipino lady and she orgasms so hard she folds in half and traps your head between her legs and stomach.

I was going down on my Filipino girlfriend and she came so hard she gave me a Manila Folder...she folded in half and I was trapped between her legs and stomach for like 5 minutes.

Fleg

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!"
