sorcerer's apprentice mode

Like Mickey Mouse's brooms, sorcerer's apprentice mode is a computer event that triggers over and over again on its own output. There was once a time on USENET (an internet message board system) where a program was written to cancel anonymously posted messages automatically. Problem was, the canceling message was also an anonymous message which caused the program to trigger on its own output.

This actually will happen if you try to downgrade a 2.0 firmware PSP and you have Norton running...the screen real estate gets used up faster and faster with the same darn error message. This is because it gets a false positive that the downgrader is PSPBrick, then Norton quarantines the "virus" which causes it to notice the freshly quarantined virus as a new virus that was just installed seconds later, and the process repeats.

some source (sorce) code

int main(){
printf("There's been a horrible error!);
main(); /* call the main function and eat more memory */
}
return 0

"I tried to copy the downgrader to my PSP, but Norton seems to have went into sorcerer's apprentice mode."

mud prophet

Moses, the man who recieved the Ten Commandments back in Biblical Times. So called because once he learned he was supposed to deliver the Israelites from Egypt, he took it upon himself to ritually coat his lower arms and lower legs with a mixture of soil and water by making bricks with the slaves. If I was Moses and I got the chance to squish mud between my toes without anyone getting on my case I'd actually be happy. I wouldn't be happy if my friend got killed by the master butcher, though.

Prince Moses the mud prophet will deliver the Israelites from Egypt after crashing the waves of the Red Sea over Pharaoh's Chariots.

2. "I feel like going scalping, I have plenty of tickets for good seats at the public execution."

fake dress

A pair of trousers that looks, from a distance, like a dress. Usually worn by women aren't proud to be female, yet are deluded into thinking they are doing their part to look girly. Very unoriginal.

Uther:"What a beautiful dress you have on!"
Igraine:"Those are pants."
Uther:"Ho-hum, another unoriginal tomboy wearing the typical fake dress."

nastygram

A legal document stating that you should stop doing something, written in legalese and with the threat of taking you to court. A cease & desist letter.

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.
