A term used in response to anything said, by self or another person, which could be interpreted as sexual in nature. Its origin, which predates the British deodorant commercials, comes from the Halo-based series Red vs Blue, in which the character Tucker uses the term ad infinitum.

In Red vs Blue:

Texas: Lets go get this big thing.

Tucker: Bomchickabowow!

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.
