microflirting

When someone wants to fuck you, but they don't know it yet or want to keep it on the DL. It's flirting, but at a subtler level.
Girl #1: Hey skank, lay off my ex
Girl #2: Um...we were just talking, bitch
Girl #1: Um...no you weren't. Thats the 4th time this week you complimented his hair, you just touched his arm, and that was some subtle eye-fuck action. Don't think I don't know about microflirting, bitch.

Microflirting

Similar to micro aggressions, microflirting is flirting on a smaller, much subtler scale. Maybe she's married, he's engaged, or they're in the same friend group, but they occaisonally make comments or gestures that suggest that interest.
Girl: "Hey, I really like your hair today. I love the conservative, clean-cut style."
Guy: "Thanks!"
Guy's friend later: "Bro, she has totally been Microflirting with you, man. That's like the 3rd time she's complemented your hair."

(Girl and guy hug as they part)
Girl's friend: "Gurl, did you see how he gave you strong eye contact and lingered for half a second on your lower back?That was totally a Microflirt."

Microfarting

The deliberate act of releasing a series of small, controlled farts in short intervals, typically in public settings, with the goal of minimizing audible noise and detectable odor. Microfarting is used as a risk-management strategy to avoid social embarrassment, and may also serve as a cautious test to determine whether a larger release could result in a shart.
The flight was packed, so I had to rely on microfarting the whole way.

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.

n. A screenshot fabricated by a company to misrepresent the graphics of a game; a combination of the words bullshit and screenshot.

Originated from Penny Arcade, a popular gaming webcomic.
-Have you seen Madden 2006 for the Xbox 360? The graphics are gonna be awesome!
-Dude, the Madden 2006 images they showed at E3 were bullshots. It doesn't look nearly as good as they said.
