carrier rush

The wrong way to describe "mass carriers" strategy in the game Starcraft.

"Rush" is the term used in SC slang to describe an early attack. Because a rush is often made with units of the same type, any strategy involving units of the same type (even if not early attack) is often mistaken as "rush".
To build carriers you have to tech quite a bit, and a single carrier takes much to be produced. Hence, you cannot "rush" with carriers.

carrier rush

Originally a popular n00b strategy used in the popular videogame StarCaft. Involves building massive amounts of the most powerful units (a Carrier), then rushing at the opponent suicidally.

Now used to describe any n00b tactics, or when someone completes a task by swarming the enemy. See zerg.

1337 haxor: I'm winning, n00b. What now?

n00b: Uh... erm... CARRIER RUSH!

1337 haxor: Oh noes! I've been pwned by a fucking n00b! ;-;

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!
