Living Standard

A computer standard which changes to meet current demand -- trading out the benefits of versioning systems for the benefits of trailblazing.

Low standards

Having no self respect and accepting anything regardless of quality. For example, dating a person who you know is a total jerk but you still want to be with them even though you know they're not good for you.

-Did you know that Patricia is dating Michael, that disgusting creep?

-Yeah dude, she has very low standards

Double standards

When somebody tells you not to talk about anybody's business, then they go and tell everybody about a secret being out because they have no self control over their own mouth.

The loudmouth didn't blurt anything out about her own double standards, but was quick to blurt something out about everyone else's that ever met her, so hopefully those new people she was meeting already knew that about her.
