HECsploit 

Unsubstantiated claims of existence of critical security vulnerabilities in widely-used software applications, with the intent of self-promotion through FUD and attention seeking on social media platforms. HECsploits are mainly work of characters self-identifying as HEC (Hacker - Entrepreneur - Communicator) types. It is a feeble attempt to gain some credibility in the absence of actual competency and technical skills.
Looks like George is trumpeting about another HECsploit on social media, with absolutely nothing to show for it. He claims it's the greatest vulnerability of our times, but we all know it's all bark and no bite.

Hicksploitation 

A genre of movies most popular in the 1970s but stretching from the 1950s to modern day in which the setting of the film was the American Deep South aka the Heart of Dixie. While this could range anywhere from Virginia to West Texas, Mississippi, Georgia, and West Virginia were the most popular

Hicksploitation films are NOT simply films set in the South but featured certain aspects that made them true hicksploitation. Most notable of these is the appearance of backwoods folks, the notorious hillbilly, and usually (but not always) in a negative context, typically as a foil against the "citified" interloper. Hicksploitation saw its zenith with the release of Deliverance in 1972. Hillbillies in these films are typically shown as shamelessly ignorant, sexually degenerate, and prone to violence. Other hallmarks of the hickspolitation films are sweaty, sweaty men, references to moonshining (though illegal production of marijuana has replaced bootleg liquor in some modern films), incestuous relations, deformed children of incest, and frequent appearance of the Confederate Battle Flag aka Stars and Bars.

Some of the best known examples of hicksploitation would be Deliverance, the Walking Tall series and the recent remake of Straw Dogs.
"Some people like classy depictions of rural poor like Winter's Bone, I prefer my white trash in gritty, nasty hicksploitation films. Give me Wrong Turn!"

Harry Potter is NOT hexploitation. Anything with Fairuza Balk in it might be.

hagsploitation 

When a heterosexual male deceives his homosexual friend's fag hag into making out with him by convincing her that you're gay. She does this because she thinks that making out with a gay man "doesn't count". This behavior can stretch to second base on occasion.
Cindy called me out for hagsploitation today after friending me on Facebook and realizing I'm straight. She had totally let me fondle her boobs last Saturday cause I was with gay Peter and she thought I was gay.

I mean I guess bro

a word of expression to when you give up on comprehending someone's words of ignorance, stupidity, absurdity or are too exhausted to formulate a proper response.

"actually... incorrect statement, hope this helps!"

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!
