free software

A term much beloved of self-important programmers, who love to rant tiresomely about such things as modification and redistribution of software, oblivious to the fact that most of us couldn't care less whether our software is free as in free speech, free beer, free love, or freestyle snowboarding, as long as we don't have to pay for it.
I can download it and use it for free, of course it's free software!

social software

all the various written "programs" ... especially those with clearly defined do's and don't's ... that people use to guide their lives, such as the Bible, etiquette books, penal codes, People Magazine, etc.
Reverend Gerald really hammers home in his sermons that the Bible is our primary piece of social software and that the 10 Commandments are all we really need.

software engineering

Boring, cubicle work which involves a lot of lines of code and countless hours of boring work. Requirements are a tie and mad computer skills. Best example of a software engineer: Peter from Office Space.
