trains-creep
This concept was imported to us from Holland and is used to define
1) A silver-fox age (usualy 45-60) male with RSCS on a train or bus who systematically and purposefully tries to sit in the vicinity of an often young (age somewhere between 18-25) woman and then to enter into a conversation with her
2) a silver fox age male pedophile who, instead of prowling the Internet, Facebook and other social networking sites to find his young female (often teenage) victims, he uses intercity trains and public city buses to do so.
Successful attempt by a trains-creep on the actual train
Trains-creep: Hey, how are you today?
Woman: I am grerat thanks, but I am now reading something interesting about Sigmund Freud. I do not want to sound rude, but sorry, I am busy.
Traincreep: Annoying all those train or bus delays, eh?
Woman: YES! And yesterday I was late for university.
Trains-creep: Wow, what are you studying?
Woman: I study psychology in Amsterdam!
Traincreep: That's funny, I am also studying in Amsterdam, but in art...
..conversation continues until the next train or bus stop...

A creeping Turner is a betting phrase used first in Thailand then more in the UK meaning a fun bet which starts small but then escalates to mammoth proportions through doubling up or adding to the original bet over time. Many people who have experienced creeping turner betting have described it as both terrifying but exciting
Ian had a creeping turner, he placed $5 about a month ago on Birmingham City winning the FA Cup and now he has $68000 riding on it!
I only wanted a fun bet but it ended up as a creeping turner! I got carried away and now am involved for thousands

Lifestyle creep refers to a phenomenon where an increase in income leads to an increase in nonessential expenses (things you don't really need).
When this happens, things that used to be luxuries become your new normal, you perceive them was if there essentials.
This phenomenon can start a loop:
You get a raise, so you have extra money.
You have extra money, so you spend more money.
You spend more money, so you live check to check.
You live check to check, so you work harder.
You work harder, so you get a raise.
Person A: I just got this huge raise, any ideas on what to spend it?
Person B: I think you should save it, lifestyle creep is easier to prevent than to stop.

The slow, monthly increase of cable television charges in amounts small enough for the customer to tend to ignore, but later result in significant overall increases.
A year ago, my cable bill was $88/month and now it's $117. I hate cable creep.
A few bucks in cable creep and now my bill is 30% higher than a year ago.
My monthly cable crept from $55 to $69 in less than one year.
N. When a unattractive person awkwardly approaches someone, like Sam Fisher outta splinter cell, and completely kills their mood. A failed schemed approach to get someones attention especially with a love interest.
Yo, yesterday at lunch some ugly-duckling tried her best to get my attention, she came up on me too creep, Bruh. The babe ruined my appetite.
