Foot prisons 

Socks. Annoying, sweat-causing, non-barefoot enducing, everyday socks.

prisoner of fun 

That wild and crazy person who is trapped in an inescapable cycle of compulsive hilarity.

Gary had coined the phrase and would always be the progenitor of the prisoner of fun lifestyle.

Prisoner of the Present

1. A person whose entire worldview is shaped by current events, stumbling along from one crisis to another.
2. Someone without a historical perspective or hope for the future.
3. The mindset that causes "knee-jerk" reactions to almost any kind of social or economic change.
4. A state of perpetual panic about "the world today."
