Dextronormative 

Used to describe one who lives by the assumption that right-handedness is the standard, preferred, and only mode of handedness and that things associated with left-handedness are generally evil.
Steven: I found out Nils is left-handed today...

Michael: Oh my God. I can't believe this shit; I had no idea.

Steven: Yeah, you can never really be prepared for that sort of thing. I don't think I can be friends with him anymore.

Michael: Yeah, me neither. He's dead to me.

Sophie: What the fuck you guys?! You're being so dextronormative!!!

dexteronormativity 

The subtle and harmful assumption of right-handedness in a person. A dexteronormative person might exclaim in surprise at the realisation that somebody is left-handed and draw attention to it in a way that would be ridiculous if it was to a right-handed person. This can lead to the left-handed person feeling "othered", which can be very damaging to their sense of self.

Dexteronormativity has also lead to a severe lack of representation for left handed people in the media, with left-handedness only ever being featured as a personality quirk in a character.

The use of "sinister" to refer to something that is menacingly different is a symptom of todays sinistrophobic culture.
"Oh my God! You're left handed! That is so weird!"
"That's dexteronormativity!"

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!"

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!
