A term used by the Quake competitive community. It basically means to retreat and play on the defensive, rather than rush forward and combat the enemy. It comes from the command "+back" which is used to move the player backwards.

The antonym to this term is +forward
Player 1 took a beating after that fight so he needs to +back until he can get some health and armor.

The final boss of typing things when you're bored. This combination works on an HP chromebook, where you type everything, in order, including the names of certain keys. You also type everything with shift. The only thing you didn't do was put in symbols that the name of isn't completely obvious.

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."
