Existism
Get the Existism mug.
Epistism
Epistism, from episteme, the Greek word for "knowledge," would signify the personal responsibility and ethical obligation to seek accurate, well-rounded knowledge before forming opinions or making statements. It captures the duty to be informed by actively researching and questioning claims, especially when it comes to topics that affect others or carry societal weight.
An epistist would be someone who believes that every person has a moral obligation to pursue verified knowledge, especially when encountering potentially misleading or manipulative information. This (most importantly) includes being critical of sources like the GOP or DNC, as their narratives can often be biased or tailored to fit a specific agenda.

P2: "... can you have some epistism? Instead of just repeating that, why don’t you actually look up the data and see if it’s true?"
P1: "But <PoliticianHere> said it!
P2: "So you DON'T want to do research?"
P1: "That's not what I-"
P2: "Then do some research."
P1: "Ok ok, fine."

P2: "Well, now you don't have to sound like a complete moron."
P1: "Yeah."

Commonly seen in TikTok comment sections in replies to lazy attempts at humor, overconfidentally incorrect statement, or an over-the-top comment or when someone completely misses the mark on something.

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
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!
