adware

Software with unnecessary code which slows the function of the host software, steals resources from the host computer, and violates privacy of the user.

No one well informed in their right mind would run software that only displayed privacy violating internet ads. Similarly no one sane and well informed would want software to embed internet ad rendering code surreptitiously or directly.

Software is payware or not-payware. There is no middle ground held by malware. The COST of using adware is violated privacy, less processing power, and less bandwidth. Adware is SELF EVIDENTLY NOT freeware nor free in any sense of the word.

Malware is software that violates the user in one or more ways.

ALL adware is malware BY DEFINITION

Anyone claiming otherwise is ignorant, evil, or delusion.

real-freeware includes Open Source, a complex movement that offers code out of selflessness.

ALL software on android market claiming to be freeware but rendering internet ads IS adware and by definition malware.

ALL installers using opencandy adware IS MALWARE -- and especially nefarious as it runs with admin rights.

Teen Choice Awards

Kid's Choice Awards 2.0. Ages 5 - 8. Created by FOX. A rigged, scripted, unofficial awards show presenting fake awards to very "special" child celebrities who set bad examples to children of older or equal age, mostly to Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers. They use laugh tracks to make it even more stupider.

Smart celebrity nominated for an award: I think I am too old for the Teen Choice Awards. I am not even going to attend, like I give a shit if I win one.

grammy award

Used to be an alright system of giving merit to exceptionally good singers. Now it's just a rigged scamfest where talentless idiots get awarded just for being on MTV, VH-1, or B.E.T..

Few Grammy Awards are being given to those who make real music but are too poor to get any attention.

Darwin Award

The Darwin Award is a fictional award which is given out to people who commit acts of utter stupidity that often involve their own injury or even death. The name is derived from Charles Darwin's Theory of Evolution (survival of the fittest), since the winners of the Darwin award aren't expected to survive long enough or remain capable of propagating their own hereditary stupidity. Some people attempt to win the Darwin award, however this is risky since if you don't get first place, you're just a dumbass with nothing to show for it but a hefty hospital bill and possibly funeral costs.

Dumbass: Dude, Steve just got sent to the hospital with third-degree burns after we tried to play Hot potato with a molotov cocktail, and I was wondering if you could-
Smartass: What, nominate you two for the Darwin award?
Dumbass: No, I was wondering if you wanted to play while he's in the hospital.
Smartass: (sigh)...
