A "Burnsie" (pronounced burnsy) is where you throw back some hard liquor during normal business hours, enough in fact that it's all over your breath and you slur your words when you get back to the office. Those that have the cajones to pull a Burnsie are generally high up enough in the company that nothing will ever come of it. The underlings however are fully aware that a Burnsie has taken place.

Usually a Burnsie happens over a lunch with sales people.

The "Half Burnsie" which is the same lunch, less liquor and you don't slur words.
We've got a customer coming in the afternoon, WTF did you have a Burnsie?

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).
