ACS Law

A known 'scam' lawfirm that operate on the basis that innocent people are too scared by (barely)legal letters to fight them.

ACS Law just sent a threatening letter to my elderly grandmother claiming she'd shared pornography online. She's in tears despite knowing she's never owned her own internet connection.

Sorry Mr. Smith but my daughter hasn't done her homework this week because she received a letter from ACS Law threatening to ruin her life.

Gavin, how are those idiots at ACS Law still practicing? Surely they're banned from the UK by now?

ACS Law

A synonym for Karma.

ACS Law is (soon to be 'was') a law firm specialising in indiscriminately sending threatening emails to people they believe to be illegal file sharers. Although their most noted case prior to 2009 was the defence of a British national accused of public indecency in Dubai, they are better known for noobing up their security and having their internal emails leaked.

Your partner slept around after finding out you'd been unfaithful? That's ACS Law, baby.

ACS Law

A crude way of calling someone a 'wanker', used heavily between employees at actual UK law firms due to the derogatory nature of being known as a scumbag lawyer like the infamous Andrew Crossley.

RealLawyer: You sound like you're practicing for ACS Law, you utter simpleton.

I mean I guess bro

a word of expression to when you give up on comprehending someone's words of ignorance, stupidity, absurdity or are too exhausted to formulate a proper response.

Commonly seen in TikTok comment sections in replies to lazy attempts at humor, overconfidentally incorrect statement, or an over-the-top comment or when someone completely misses the mark on something.

"actually... incorrect statement, hope this helps!"
"I mean I guess bro"

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!
