Get the the C word mug.
the C word
It pains me to utter it because the FBI will probably investigate me for it, but the C word refers to "Christmas." Originally derived from the Roman Saturnalia (observed on the winter solstice) and still viewed by some as a pagan holiday, in 2005 it was made illegal to say this word when preceded by the word "merry." Also, according to federal law, if anyone now directs the dread term "Merry Christmas!" towards a non-Christian, the mandatory minimum punishment is 20 lumps of coal for Christmas, as well as castration (it is a sort of forced New Year's resolution that you will give up your sexuality, male or female). In accordance with the law, in 2005 President George W. Bush sent out "Christmas" cards which simply read "Happy Holidays!" This is now the official legal term for the time of year between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day. Acceptable alternatives are "Merry Festivus!," "Yo bitch, hava bomb ass Kwanza!," and "Happy Boxing Day!" (None of the three deal with religion, so they are legally acceptable now).
Christian Dude: "Have a very Merry Christmas!"
Baha'i Chick: "Oh my God, I can't believe you just said the C word to me! Isn't it obvious that I'm Baha'i? At least you could have said 'yo bitch, hava bomb ass Kwanza' or 'happy holidays.' Jeez, this is like ten times worse than the time you called me a cunt! I'm gonna have to call the cops on you now, you know."
Christian Dude: "No, please, I didn't mean it! I don't want to be forced to make a New Year's resolution to lose my manhood!"
Baha'i Chick: "Oh grow up, no one keeps their New Year's resolutions anyway. Besides, you're Asian, so the new year doesn't come for like another month for you."

The C-Word
Count, Count, Count—the evil mantra of the liberals or socialists, which translates into the fact that the more they count the votes, the more there are more votes for Biden than Trump, which is a fraud.
President Trump’s morally bankrupt entourage are singing along the political hymn he wants to hear, which blames the fake news media for brainwashing the electorate with the C-word.

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.

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."
