Basil Brush 

Fox puppet which became a household name after the Basil Brush Show was launched in the late 60s. Famous for his trademark laugh, which is probably one of the most irritating sounds known to man.
The show has recently returned, but with a new puppet and voice.

The new Basil is infinitely more fat and camp.
"Basil Brush. He goes 'HA HA HA BOOM BOOM.'"

"Basil Brush? Who the fox hat?"

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!
