headier-than-thou 

A person who is headie or heady or a head (ie into the jamband scene) and believes they are better than other fans because they have been to a large number of shows, tour extensively, know a great deal of statistics by heart, wear a lot of patchwork, or are extensively organic--anything to do with the jamband scene. Essentially a jamband snob.
Just as “holier-than-thou,” is a word one would use to describe someone who believes they are better than others for their moral points of view, the person who is “headier-than-thou” thinks s/he is better than other fans because of their level of “fan-ness,” or at least this is what other heads believe the “headier-than-thou” person is communicating through their behavior.

That guy won't shut up about how many Phish shows he's been to. He is so "headier-than-thou."

Heavier Than Thou 

A way of saying I am more metal than you are, or to claim that something is TRUE METAL. This is a play on the saying Holier than thou.

Have you heard that The Showdown has reunited?? Their new stuff is heavier than thou!!!
Have you heard that The Showdown is back?? Their new stuff is heavier than thou!!!
A small piece of information. Derived from the word ken, used often in the scottish language and is synonymous with knowledge.

Person 2: "I got that one. Give me some kenlets on this assignment and I'll help you w/ that one."

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).
