Social Luddism 

Social Luddism, also SocLuddism or SocLudd, rejects mass media and anything related to it, and believes that the mass media and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race. It seeks to reduce the impacts of mass media, internet, videogames and so on in human lives believing or media should show positive things about the world more than it does with negative things, or it should be reduced until return into the times mass media weren't so harmful to people. Some variants of social luddism advocate that mass media should show show more positive things about the world and encourage people to see the positive side of life and existence, while others advocate that mass media should be reduced until it returns to the times mass media weren't so harmful to people while some few others advocate that mass media should be abolished and no longer exist. Social Luddism is often characterized by the uses of terms such as "pacification" (make mass media more pacific and positive), "positivization" (make media show more positive things than negative things), "deviolentization" (reduce violence on mass media) and "depornographization" / "depornization" (reduce pornography and porn on mass media).
"John is a socluddite, he supports social luddism and he believes that violence and porn should be reduced on mass media by gradually replacing them by positive content and content that would make humans become closer to become a species of highly evolved beings."

"It's really hard to realize when social luddism actually started, there are a lot of examples of social luddites since 1950's-1960's, and nowadyas, in the 2020's, social luddism might become a major power if people manage to turn it into reality."

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!

cornholio 

Ruler of Lake Titicaca. Rumored to have a bunghole that gets very angry if it does not receive toilet paper. Cornholio the Great is often seen walking around with his shirt over his head and his hands in the air, chanting songs about his power, and his bunghole.
"I am Cornholio! You do not want to face the wrath of my bunghole, for I need TP!"
Butthead: Shut up, Beavis! (uh huh huh huh)
Beavis: Um, okay. (heh heh heh heh).
