Napsterize 

To freely distribute knowledge/works that may or may not be protected by copyright law through file sharing software.

In the past 50 years, the process of "napsterization" has been applied to all sorts of intellectual property distribution, from bootleg cassette tapes to digital files like mp3s and movies.
There is even some concern presently about how the process will affect written work.

The term stems from a program written by Shawn Fanning in 1998 called Napster, a popular P2P program.
I used to napsterize mp3s when I was younger, but after years of listening to loud music, I have gone deaf. Because of this combined with the fact I have no money, I still napsterize books whenever I can.

The Napsterization of Singapore Math 

When digital pirates from notorious copyright-violating countries like India, Pakistan, and Nigeria are blatantly sharing Singapore math e-books, students’ and teachers’ resources, and textbook solutions; or are selling them at a fraction of their actual prices.
To tens of thousands of students and teachers in the developing world, the Napsterization of Singapore math looks more like the democratization rather than the illegal dissemination of Singapore math materials to help raise their quantitative literacy at zero costs or for the price of a few megabytes.

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!

cornholio 

Ruler of Lake Titicaca. Rumored to have a bunghole that gets very angry if it does not receive toilet paper. Cornholio the Great is often seen walking around with his shirt over his head and his hands in the air, chanting songs about his power, and his bunghole.
"I am Cornholio! You do not want to face the wrath of my bunghole, for I need TP!"
Butthead: Shut up, Beavis! (uh huh huh huh)
Beavis: Um, okay. (heh heh heh heh).

Haram ball

A terrible style of football which is used to win games. Usually used when a team faces a better opponent and will get 11 players behind the ball.
Diego Simeone has mastered the art of haram ball. Atletico Madrid are the worst side to watch
