probe lobes

"The art of digging in ones ears with a finger to find something either gross, sticky, waxy or just weird...better than looking for a q-tip"

"A person able to find a q-tip, knowingly NOT supposed to stick it in ear lobes, only to dig, get wax, dig deeper and extract blood."

"To probe lobes is a a good way of doing a self exam, but bad form in front of others, somewhat like picking your nose."
"Dude, I keep on having ringing in my ears, I mean I do it, I q-tip: probe lobes and still can't stop the ringing, I think I'm making it worse."

"MAYBE U HAVE TINNITUS AND SHOULD SEE A DOCTOR, TRYING TO A Q TIP TO PROBE LOBES IS DANGEROUS, I SAW IT ON A COMMERCIAL."

"Could be, but I'll go in, some intern will do a onceover, probe lobes, and have a virtual light show in my ear with that spectrum, yo, what's up with that?

probe lobes

The doctor starts to probe lobes, only to find that your bodily hygeine is oh, oh so bad."

You taking a q-tip and shoving into one ear, then the other, as you probe lobes,despite the implicit instructions not to, you find wax so old, it could only be conserved in one of those weird museums on a beach strip."

The annual examination your doctor gives, when he puts a light spectrum to your ear to probe lobes, to check out see what's going on, to you nothing, to him, a lighted slick based adventure."
"This ringing in my ear, has got to stop, I'm glad I have an HMO, my doc can probe lobesand see if I have tinnitus."

"I've been sticking q-tips in my ears for years, but when I do the double probe lobes, all I find is more wax build up, my doctor doesn't seem to get that somehow there's a safer way to get it out of there."

"Ya know, if you probe lobes, you might hear a little better, yo, it's like your deaf or something, man, wassup?

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.
