This was my nickname when i was little



and according to slang dictionaries, its new meaning is:
pixie
- v. to practice sabotage as an expression of environmental politics.

[The article cited in the Oct. 2004 citation says, "The Earth
Liberation Front initial ELF led to the use of the term 'elf' and
then to 'pixie-ing.'"] Pixieing can range from mischievous to
criminal acts, including occupying a site, crippling machinery, or
removing survey markers.
