When they released the FooCat :CueCat barcode scanner decrypting software, DigitalConvergence sent them a nastygram. My neighbor's lawyer sent me a nastygram telling me that my son is playing his Satanic non-music too loud and drawing pentagrams using plant food on his lawn, and will sue me for $666,666.00 if he doesn't quit.

Get the nastygram mug.(From the nuclear power industry's false promise about electricity being so cheap as not being able to charge for it)
1. In a fantasy or western-european-Pagan setting, sorcerous things that use so little mana as to be insignificant and not get you persecuted if you use them. Dancing naked in the forest when no one's looking and no camera is rolling is witchcraft that's too cheap to meter.
2. In a broader sense, a deed in a gray area (of society) that's so small as to not even be noticed.

1. When Gandalf blew a ship made of smoke through a smoke ring it was a form of witchcraft that's too cheap to meter.
1. At 10:45 AM I took off all my clothes and went into the woods and did a thankful little jig when it didn't snow. I'm Christian, but it was witchcraft that's too cheap to meter.
2. Gina:"Are you downloading MP3 files again?"
Sean:"Yeah, don't worry, it's witchcraft that's too cheap to meter. You won't get caught."
2. In 1996 I took some toilet paper and stuffed it into the bathroom exhaust fan at my grandmother's house, she didn't mind because it was similar to witchcraft that was too cheap to meter.

Get the witchcraft that's too cheap to meter mug.Unburnable Media Disc. The read-only disc used in a Sony Playstation Portable. Made to be unburnable because people would make UMD Mix-discs which hold loads of songs or even more using a GBA emulator and a GSM player. Not to mention burning copies of commercial games. Destined for failure.

Get the UMD mug.Portable Systems Performer--A Sony Playstation Portable, which, if you can have 1.5 firmware flashed to it, will emulate a whole load of systems, and, get this, can play 4 days of music on a 512MB memory stick duo in Protracker MOD format (and even more than that in 8-16 bit Video Game Music formats) Every media player that runs on a GBA flash cartridge runs full speed at 222mhz or less and gives you loads of audio (MOD, GSM, ADPCM) and video (Meteo) as well as most of the GBA's library of games.
If you use the homebrew PMP MOD AVC player you can record watchable VCD quality video and audio at 2 megabytes per recorded minute (256kbps) as opposed to a heck of a lot more wasted space (768Kbps) with the player Sony gives you.
The PSP ran every NES game I could throw at it, can emulate a Sega Genesis with frameskip 1, runs a full speed gameboy original, a SNES that tears the picture a little, a third-speed Amiga 500 (best computer ever made IMHO), and you can get an MP3 player with an oscilloscope for the easily amused. It's also an infrared remote control. Since when did your "Update" ever give you the ability to zap people's TVs while it looks like you're just playing a game?
And you can control your PC's mouse, or check on a long download that your PC's doing from the kitchen.

"Brandon bought a UMD which flied out of his PSP while I played Super Mario Advance and Sword of Sodan."

Get the psp mug.1. A webmaster or moderator who chooses to avoid contact with every single other person simply because they had a bad experience with exactly one bad apple. Usually very lazy and refuses to answer questions about their website, or in the case of moderators, cancels/censors posts about things they disagree with just because he wants to be a jerk about it. They have very few friends, because they build a wall around themselves. Often a firewall builder takes a popular domain name and makes it a nothing site.
Don't bother e-mailing Legolas about his website, he's a firewall builder. Why are you posting praise to God to an AOL user? That's a sure way to create a firewall builder.

Get the firewall builder mug.A situation between 2 people where each is waiting for the other's task to finish, so nothing gets done. When you walk down a narrow hallway, and you go to one side so they can get by, then the other person goes to the other side, blocking you again...that is deadlock. Deadlock is also when you go shopping with your mom in a strip mall and you don't say where to meet each other, so you go looking in store A while your mom looks for you in store B, then you get the idea that she's looking in store B, so you go there at the same she decides to look in store A. Named after the computer processing term of the same name.

Get the Deadlock mug.In hick country where there's no public transportation, you have no car, and your parents would rather go to Guantanamo Bay to be tortured than drive you anywhere...this is when you have breakfast, lunch, and dinner at 3 different restaurants (not at home) in different locations in the same day. An incredibly rare event worthy of taking your hat off and saluting.
Brent rarely gets to go out to eat, but today he had the Hat-Trick, going to Dunkin Donuts for breakfast, Burger King for lunch and the 99 restaurant for dinner.
