screw

en-verb

screw (third-person singular simple present screws, present participle screwing, simple past screwed, past participle screwed or (rare, nonstandard) screwn)

screws (present singular third-person)
screwing (participle present)
screwed (past)
screwed (participle past)
screwn (nonstandard participle past rare)

From Middle English screw, scrue (“screw”); apparently, despite the difference in meaning, from Old French escroue (“nut, cylindrical socket, screwhole”), from Latin scrōfa (“female pig”) through comparison with the corkscrew shape of a pig's penis. There is also the Old French escruve (“screw”), from Old Dutch *scrūva ("screw"; whence Middle Dutch schruyve (“screw”)), which probably influenced or conflated with the aforementioned, resulting in the Middle English word.
more on the etymology of screw
Old French escroue (whence Medieval Latin scrofa (“nut, screwhole”)), is believed to be an adaptation of Latin scrōfa (“sow, female pig”); but this development is not found in other Romance languages. (For change in meaning, compare also Spanish puerca, Portuguese porca, both ‘sow; screw nut’, and is based on the fact that a boar's penis has a screw-like tip, making the sow's vulva equivalent to a screw nut by analogy).
Old Dutch *scrūva possibly derives from Proto-Germanic *skrūbō (“screw”), from *skru- (“to cut”), from Proto-Indo-European *(s)keru-, *(s)ker- (“to cut”), and is related to German Schraube (“screw”), Low German schruve, schruwe (“screw”), Dutch schroef (“screw”), West Frisian skroef (“screw”), Danish skrue (“screw”), Swedish skruv (“screw, peg”), Icelandic skrúfa (“screw”).
Compare also Occitan escrofa (“screw nut”), Calabrese scrufina (“screw nut”), which may be borrowings of the Old French word, or parallel developments.

eyeballer

From eyeball + -er (agent noun suffix) or, for something eye-catching, + -er (patient suffix).

He would wear a phony diamond ring to flash in your eye, and he would have an “eyeballer” or kibitzer in the audience who would make a sudden noise or otherwise distract you while you were shooting.

1965, Henry Robinson Luce, Life - Volume 58, page 163:

The person performing the theatrics, the "eyeballer," is an independent contractor of sorts, hired by you to play nearby and keep an eye on the action at your table; when things get hairy, he's to shark your opponent from afar, all the while making it look innocuous and wholly unintentional.

1990, Steve Rushin, Pool Cool, →ISBN, page 56:

We are not bothered by eyeballers, since we manage to keep the lid on about the sting and the rematch, and Carbuncle Harry and the boys have no idea of what is coming down; for this I am very relieved.

(pool) A secret accomplice who surreptitiously watches the competition and interferes by causing a distraction to prevent the opponent from getting a good shot.
