Card-Wanker

A person that rarely carries cash and routinely pays with a card.

A card-wanker will usually insist that the benefits of not carrying cash justify their 'card-wanker' status but this is a fallacy.

Card wankers will generally need to go to the cash point before nights out or when purchasing items from places that don't accept cards but will typically only draw enough to cover what they think they will spend which is usually slighly less than they actually need resulting in a second visit to the ATM.
Example 1

Paul: Why is it that there always a queue at the checkout when you're in a rush?
Dave: Yeah, I know.
Paul: And the guy in front of me always turns out to be a card wanker.
Dave: I'm paying on card.
Paul: Why?
Dave: I don't have any cash on me.
Paul: You're such a card-wanker.
Dave: (begins weak attempt to justify his card-wanker status)

Example 2

Paul: Anyone up for a pint after work?
Dave: Yeah, I'll go but I need to go to the ATM first.
Paul: It's a pint, It'll cost you less that a fiver.
Dave: I don't have any cash.
Paul: You're such a card-wanker.
Dave: (begins weak attempt to justify his card-wanker status)

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.

Foot prisons 

Socks. Annoying, sweat-causing, non-barefoot enducing, everyday socks.
The first thing I do when I take off my shoes, is rip off the foot prisons I had to wear inside them. That's why I prefer flip flops, even in winter!
