Morphokinesis

Morphokinesis (from Greek *morphos* = shape or form and * kinesis* = movement) is the hypothetical psychic ability to manipulate and/or change the shape or appearance of both living creatures (like the shape or appearance of one's own or another person's physical body or the one of another living being) and inanimate objects by using the power of one's mind.

Morphokinesis only manipulates the shape and/or appearance of living creatures and/or objects,without changing their molecular and/or chemical qualities.

This hypothetical psychic ability is an extension of shapeshifting,which only applies to the alteration of one's own physical appearance and/or shape.

Morphokinesis is related to psychokinesis (the ability to influence and/or manipulate matter and/or energy with the power of one's mind) and could,therefor, be seen as a special psychokinetic ability.

The Q-creature in the Star Trek-series uses morphokinesis to manipulate his own appearance and his surroundings,including objects and matter

Morphogenetic Field

A concept from the Zero Escape series that can best be described as the semi imaginary place where you can pass information to someone else if you're an esper... Or pass the info through time... Or time travel... Or literally jump timelines.

Also it is sorta like the collective unconscious but different. It's weird.

Akane: Junpei, do you know about the Morphogenetic Field?

Junpei: ............................What?

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!"

Skeef

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."
