platonic crush

The feeling of giddiness and happiness towards someone you know without the romantic or sexual attraction accompanying a regular crush.

I love talking to and being around Max, even though a lot of what he says isn't true. I have a platonic crush on him.

Platonic Crush

The intense desire to follow someone on social media sites while resisting the temptation to add them as friends.

Someone told me she had been following my Facebook feeds over a year. I sent her a friend request, but she politely declined. She messaged me that was not the direction she wished to take. I think she has got a platonic crush on me.

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."

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.

I was folding my clothes and a huge hair spider fell out onto my hand
