console-itis

Describes a videogame ported to PC from a console system, or co-developed for both console and PC, that is percieved to suffer from the alleged shortcomings of console gaming.

Symptoms of console-itis include save points, low texture/graphical detail, poor or no mouse support, lack of gameplay depth, and limited configuration options.

Presumably, with consoles becoming more and more like PCs, console-itis will become less and less of an issue in the days and years to come in the future of the age of tomorrow.
There are too many examples to list. Just think of almost any console game ported to PC that you've played, and there's your example.

Ringtone-itis

A frequently occurring phenomenon now that real songs are often used with cellular phones, taking the place of the antiquated "ringing" sound.

Ringtone-itis occurs when a favorite song is chosen to be someone's ringtone, but after months of hearing it when receiving a call, that person cannot stand to hear the song anywhere (on the radio, iPod, CD). A once-beloved song is now taboo. And the worst part is, you did it to yourself.
You- "Dude, I LOVE "Heartless" by Kanye! I'm so gonna make that my ringtone!"

4 months later.........

You again- "Dude, if I hear that song one more time I am going to punch someone in the face, I am that enraged by my once-beloved song."

A wise friend- "Sounds like a case of Ringtone-itis to me. The cure? Change your ringtone, man."

(And the sick cycle begins again)

itis pill

a non-medicinal substitute for sleep aids currently in development. the pill contains derivatives of tryptophan from turkey, saturated fats from slow-roasted pulled pork, and powdered Hawaiian Punch. The result is a very powerful sleep aid.

Side effects include sloth and obesity with continued use.

Overdose Warning: overdoses could result in a food-induced coma; something along the lines of eating 3 pulled pork sandwiches and washing it down with Hawaiian Punch. It's a good idea to be near a bed or La-z-boy Recliner when taking this medication
