Putting In the Pool

A phrase derived from a National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation quote as Clark Griswold reveals his Christmas Bonus Check plans.

"Take a look at this. I just hope my Christmas Bonus Check will cover it."
..."Oh my god, you're putting in a pool."
The phrase is used to describe someone succeeding in a big way, or as some might say, "putting in work."

"So you got a 4.0 and you're dating that Spanish girl with the huge ass?"
"I mean..yeah dude. I told you I was going to put in the pool this semester."

"Apparently Joe got that job at that law firm in the city...and he got 46 likes on his status last night."
"Joe's the man. He's putting in the pool this year...Fucking legend status."

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.
