Slaw job 

A complex, painful, and pointless task assigned by a superior purely for his own self-aggrandizement in front of his superiors. Best responded to by a subtle act of malicious obedience that results in the superior's embarrassment, thus becoming a true Milwaukee slaw job.
"I'm going to be here all weekend on this, but when my boss tries to present this, this slaw job's on him because he doesn't understand the kind of math I'm using."

Slaw job

Jobwin's Law 

the rule that if given enough time in any online discussion about Apple, someone will eventually make a comparison to Steve Jobs would have done differently (a variation on Goodwin's law)
"If Steve Jobs were alive, he would have never allowed that color choice on the new packaging."
OR
"Steve Jobs must be rolling in his grave over the new Apple commercials!"

"Can we please stop mentioning Steve Jobs' name everything Apple does something we don't like? Jobwin's law is really pissing me off right now."

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!
