Quicktimed

Originating from the Apple program that performs this action, to be quicktimed is to install a program that adds numerous hidden registry keys, an icon on the desktop, in quick launch and in the start menu without your approval.
"Dude, I just installed a porn app and now there's tons of icons and shit,"
"Dude, you've been Quicktimed!"

Quicktime

A video format from Apple with the shittiest and gayest SDK I have ever seen, and even worse documentation. Includes such revealing function names as MoviesTask(), and short, easy to type constant names as kQTMovieAudioExtractionPropertyID _AudioStreamBasicDescription. Actually has a constant called DoTheRightThing, and calls setting things up "preflighting". I can just picture Quicktime engineers sitting in their turtleneck sweaters thinking that using words like "preflight" somehow makes them cool. Having spent some time with the Quicktime APIs I think I can safely assume that general Mac development is just as retarded.
Dude, I have been trying to find what numerical value kQTAnnoyingLongAssConstantNames _IDontHaveTwentyFingersToTypeThisShit maps to in the Quicktime header files, but haven't had any luck so far.

QuickTime

A mediocre at best video format that was never the best video format even in the early days when Apple would have had you think otherwise. Generally known for producing lousy grainy video streams on the internet.
Quicktime is an apple product and it shows!
