The exhausting experience of trudging through piles of snow to get to where you need to go. Trudgery is highly effortful and has a negative effect on mood. Unplowed sidewalks, heavy bags, early mornings, severe winds, and non-waterproof footwear can all heighten one's sense of trudgery.
"Ugh, two feet of snow fell last night, and I had to get to class by 8:30am. The sidewalks were a mess. I'm exhausted; it was complete trudgery."

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.

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!
