Shortlining

When you're talking to someone (mostly takes place in online chat conversations) and all they do is respond with the very annoying, aggravating word "Okay." Hence "shortlining." It usually happens when you're talking about something important too.

Joe: Hey how was your day?
Gary: Okay.
Joe: Well, today I went cruising with that girl I like ;)
Gary: Ok.
Joe: ... Well after I got to know her I finally confessed my feelings to her and she said she felt the same way!
Gary: Good.
Joe: ... You know what? Quit shortlining me and fuck you dude if you're not interested.

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!
