ratware

A legitimate program that culls and divulges information about you and the media you are playing or have in storage.
When you load such a program many gave up such privacy rights when you checked the "I agree" box upon installation.
It may report that you do not have the proper digitally watermarked, signed or registered software and/or media.
Joe I'm afraid to play my downloaded MP3 files while online. Its kind of creepy the way this ratware pulls up the album cover art. Who knows what else it can pull out of my stuff. Maybe this DRM ratware even remembers what I played while offline and waits when I get back on to report me. It's as bad as a keylogger. Microsoft, google and Sony are cohorts in developing this DRM ratware crap.

ratware

Ratware is legitimate software that upon your checking "yes" to the agreement and completing the install, begins to report back to it's maker. It may recognize the music patterns of a song and suddenly show you the album cover art. It may store your searchwords, monitor you website activities, your subscribed-to usenet groups, and your non DRM videos in order to "enhance your experience" build a model of your interests or to report you to the authorities in order to make an example of you. It may report system errors along with the nature of the files that caused the crash.
Richie, I'd be careful using that ratware music player. it kind of creeps me out how it suddenly either shows you the cover art or suggests other songs by that artist. You can rename the file qwerty.mp3 and it still knows its Aerosmith! That ratware crap is gonna report you DRM free shit man. be careful. You can go offline, but maybe it remembers and rats you out later. Microsoft, Google, the whole music and film industry are acting in concert developing ratware.

Seventh Day Adventurist

A Jewish or a Seventh Day Adventist who defies his religious tenets and rules and instead goes to ski, bowl, or to participate in some such other leisure activity including drinking and carousing with other same-minded pals.

One who treats Saturdays the same day called The Sabbath as if it were any other day therefore is likely a blasphemer and one who risks the wrath of God by not attending church or temple.
Oh, THAT woman. We never see her at temple. She must be one of those seventh day adventurists that will will pay later with her soul. It is disgraceful how she disrespects The Sabbath, and therefore her family.

Bic Pen Hole

The place where all Bic Pens, or some other cheap brands, in as much as a 10-pack seem to disappear to in a matter of a week and a half in an office, and a month and a half at home.
The manner in which the pens have vanished remains eternally unknown as if they were drawn into a black hole where all information is not retrievable.
Jesus! I bough a whole bunch of pens last week and I only have one left! Did anyone open my draws? They can't just have disappeared like that! This keeps happening as if there is some friggin' Bic Pen Hole sucking them in!

penal mode

A guy who is often observed to be thinking with his dick in any given situation or a guy who switches into a lusty, lewd, crude and foolish person A man in that mode can also be quite rude. They tend to zone onto the female person or persons of interest, to the exclusion of all others.
Dude, you brother could be taking to mom while he's checking out the talent on the street as if he's eternally in some penal mode! Whenever Valencia walks by we all become invisible when he switches into that penal mode shit, acting like some crass fool! Tell him to snap out of it man and give us and her some respect!

chick kiting

Moving around a bar or a party, paying attention to a woman then making an excuse to work oneself away, with the promise of returning, only to move on to doing the same with another woman, and another as many times as time allows.
Look a Thomas work that room: He must be kiting as many as eight chicks at a time. Ha, you must have heard him call that chick kiting! What do you expect from a banker dealing with checks all day?
