3 the hard way

An impossibility; very hard to achieve. Refers to craps term "the hard way" where two dice must be rolled with matching numbers. EX: 6 the hard way would be 3/3, not 5/1 or 2/4. Therefore, 3 the hard way would be im-fucking-possible.

3 the hard way

In basketball, a play earning 3 points by scoring a 2 point basket, drawing a foul, and converting on the subsequent free throw. This three points requires more toughness than the three point shot, and so is called "three the hard way."
Dwayne Wade drives to the basket makes the layup and is fouled. He'll shoot a free throw to earn 3 the hard way.

Person I Am Talking To: "I have no idea what you just said."

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
