Time To First Commit. An software engineer starts working at say, Google, and it takes them 1 month to get their code into production (actually running on google.com). Their time to first commit would be 1 month. TTFC is good/simple way to measure the effectiveness of your on-boarding process, and the learning curve of your organization.
Abe: Dude, at my last company my TTFC was 1 week. I've broken my record and now it is 3 days!

Bob: Some companies don't even keep track of TTFC, and then their new hires get all demoralized because they feel like they aren't making an impact. High TTFCs are the devil.

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).
