reekfeel 

reekfeel is a term that seems to be more and more used to indicate and describe a particular type of experimental fiction that has the purpose to shock and destabilize developed mainstream, to work with feelings good and bad, to generate buzz, but mainly confusion

this particularly type of art originated in the UK in the early 2000s and is reeking through to the surface with the use of all sorts of crazy and absurd internet activities (videos, posts and memberships on different networks, ....) that are then re-elaborated in written, audio or video forms to be published elsewhere (although I have seen only peer-to-peer distribution, that contained lovely videos and photos merged with screen shots of certain events) with a full background information, to pin point the absurdity of this world and have a little laugh at it all

often the term itself "reekeel" is embedded in the works through tags, comments and names of fictitious characters on networks and so forth, to generate the a certain preamble of the whole event, like a sign to those that know .. it works quite well since it isn't really common knowledge
that video was strange
no it was fun
it was crazy, but somehow compelling
it was real weird
what was it?
basically, it was sooo reekfeel!

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.
