stay tuned

To hang on, awaiting more news on a subject.

On old dial-tuned AM radios before there were even preset buttons, it was a non-trivial task to tune into a particular station. So radio news announcers would tell their audience to stay tuned to the station if they were expecting more info on the current story."

Literally: "(crackle) explosions reported at Pearl Harbor naval base in (crackle) Hawaii...stayed tuned for more news..."

StayTuned

The business version of 'we are waiting to see what happens during the next few steps before we make any moves or decisions'.

It is a very descriptive term, in the sense it immediately identifies the user as a douche.

Paul: Could you ask Peter if he could get us tickets to the game tonight.

Marion: Good call, I just sent him a text. StayTuned.

Paul: Fucking hell, forget it.

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!
