Arranged romantic relationship

An approach where an individual chooses a group of people, which may include the person’s family, friends, and close acquaintances, to choose someone for them to get into relationship with. Unlike arranged marriage, where usually an individual’s immediate family and or a professional matchmaker chooses an individual for the person to marry and they rush off a short time later to get married, once the group chooses an individual for them to get into a relationship with and reveals their choice to the individual, the individual and the person chosen to be their partner will enter a courtship phase for time period of between three to five years to make sure they are compatible. Unlike dating, where as more time passes people become more physically emotionally, and or sexually intimate, in an arranged romantic relationship there may be increases emotional intimacy, assuming the two people are compatible, but all of their interactions during the courtship phase are to be held in public settings, not just in the presence of their family and friends, but around people they don’t know, which limits the ability to have physical intimacy down to just hugging, dancing, and maybe brief kisses. Once the courtship phase is up, the couple will meet with the group the individual chose to decide whether they will get married or if things don’t work out, they can still be friends or go their separate ways.
Veronica: Who is that guy Anna is now seeing?
Jenna: His name is Chandler. I heard that Anna is having an arranged romantic relationship.
Veronica: I am not sure what you mean by arranged romantic relationship. Can you please explain what that is and how it?
Jenna: She asked some of her friends and family to choose a romantic partner for her and they chose him. Now she and him will be courting each other over the next three to five years to make sure they are compatible with each other. She can end it if she feels things just are not working out. After that, they will meet with the group of people she chose and decide whether or not to get married.
Veronica: That sounds similar to arranged marriage, except it does not rush the couple to get married and it gives women a lot more control over who they will marry.

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.

Foot prisons 

Socks. Annoying, sweat-causing, non-barefoot enducing, everyday socks.
The first thing I do when I take off my shoes, is rip off the foot prisons I had to wear inside them. That's why I prefer flip flops, even in winter!

cornholio 

Ruler of Lake Titicaca. Rumored to have a bunghole that gets very angry if it does not receive toilet paper. Cornholio the Great is often seen walking around with his shirt over his head and his hands in the air, chanting songs about his power, and his bunghole.
"I am Cornholio! You do not want to face the wrath of my bunghole, for I need TP!"
Butthead: Shut up, Beavis! (uh huh huh huh)
Beavis: Um, okay. (heh heh heh heh).
