Witchblade

"What is the Witchblade?

For thousands of years it has existed. An intelligent, symbiotic weapon of incredible power. A living gauntlet that becomes one with its wearer. The Witchblade: Only women of unmatched strength of mind, body and will have ever successfully worn it. Its legacy has created a warrior bloodline back through time and forward into the future. Joan of Arc wielded the blade as did other great warrior women throughout the ages. But to wear the Witchblade is to be both its master and its servant, as this mysterious weapon draws to it what it needs and casts aside what it does not. Stirring to life at times of crisis -- during wars, famines, pestilence -- the Witchblade has been used to cut a swath of blood and viscera through the ranks of previously insurmountable evil. For decades it has lain dormant, but now in the early days of the 21st century, the Witchblade has chosen a new bearer of its power.... and its curse."

The WitchBlade is a bracelet which expands itself into a gauntlet and eventually a full armour suit with a integeral sword as well as other weapons. It cam only be used by women, and only fully by some women known as blade wielders.
Current Wielder is a New York detective called Sara Pezzini.

Easter island statue with an arse full of razor blades 

Terminally po-[faced], miserable, humourless. A term famously used by former Australian Prime Minister Paul Keating to describe former PM Malcolm Fraser.
"You look like an Easter Island statue with an arse full of razor blades."

Playing the Violin with your Wrist and a Blade 

Playing the violin with your wrist and a blade is a term used by people who cut themselves that don't want to to know what they're on about. Usually its just called "Playing the Violin" but when used around other cutters they use the full term.
Person 1: "I heard that she played the violin last night."
Person 2: "Yeah, using her wrist and a blade! I hope she's alright.
Person 1: "Playing the Violin with Your Wrist and a Blade can be dangerous, but it helps her get through the tough times."

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."
