mean-mugged

adverb. Relating to the unpleasant and often downright grumpy action of frowning and/or lightly non-verbaly disrespecting someone in order to make them feel insecure.
As I walked into the room with my new attractive boyfreind, whom I spent most of my time with nowdays, I could help but feel "mean-mugged" by my ex-boyfreind, Brooks, who was drowning his sorrows in alcohol at the end of the bar, becuase he was recently fired from his job, and has resorted to selling cheap elevators in Boston.

Mean-girl mugged 

A social attack meant to: oppress, despirit, embarrass, confuse, and destroy the target person's confidence; it's a mind-fuck. This attack is done usually by a teenage girl, or girl in her early 20's. This is a subclass of gaslighting and troll attacks.

The attack can be complex; it involves the girl talking to her target (the mark) using any mixture of bullshit, like:

1. Portraying/acting out a sarcastic character with an altered voice

2. While obnoxiously taking a contrarian position to something obviously opposite in the discussion. Basically, two-face shit

3. And using a series of gas-lighting techniques-- or blatant lying-- to weaken confidence (e.g. "Stopp. Read the room. No one thinks your funny"--when really the exact opposite is true)

4. Fake-complimenting the target (i.e. only to tell them they look like absolute shit, say, ten seconds later)

5. Feigning interest in the target's life only to lead them down a road of sudden and precise personal insults (i.e. ..so much for sharing your traumatic life events with someone)

Once the target buys into the attacker's positive advances (i.e. the trigger point)-- the attacker will switch their personality (and position). Then, attack the target by saying the opposite of all the positive shit they said before-- this can include lying, gaslighting; the goal is to do all the emotional damage. This process can vary, be complex, drawn-out (or short), and repeated over and over again to the attacker's fucked up satisfaction.
Attacker Girl: "ohhh I REALLY like your hairrrr....... it's like my friends hair; except theirs is soft, silky, isn't greasy, doesn't have dandruff and split ends, and isnt all static-y, and actually smells goood..."

Targeted Girl: (....Fuck... I just got mean-girl mugged...)

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.
