delaneyism 

A particular way of speaking where words are often replaced with other words that are close to the original but make little sense to most people who haven't been around someone who speaks like that enough to finally understand. Replacement words are often modified versions of actual words or sarcastic replacements that mock the usual commonly known way of expressing the sentiment. Delaneyism may also invoove metaphors that are kinda just out there and a touch overboard.
Well there's a delaneyism if I ever heard one. I get what you're trying to say but ugh the way you're saying that is definitely a delaneyism.

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!
