little eichmanns 

Term used by American political activist academic Ward Churchill to describe those victims of the September 11th World Trade Center attacks whom he considered to be passively complicit in unethical industrial and political enterprises housed by buildings such as the WTC's. A reference to Nazi bureaucrat Adolf Eichmann and, in particular, to the analysis of his post-war trial, which suggested that rather than participating in the Nazi war machine out of ideological fanaticism, he had participated in its worst atrocities largely out of an uncomplicated and uncritical sense of duty to the organisation. Churchill therefore used the term to imply this idea passive complicity in systemic evil.
Sure, Exxon has a few bigwigs and Ideas Men who know full well what they're destroying at any given point in time, and who they're ripping off along the way, but its the little eichmanns all the way down the corporate foodchain who keep the wheels turning.

Little Eichmanns 

Contrary to popular belief, not all the victims of September 11, but only the "technocrats of empire" are the equivalent of little Eichmanns. Adolf Eichmann was never charged with direct killing or ordering killing, but with ensuring that the logistics of the dejewification of Europe ran smoothly.
Ward Churchill was horribly misquoted as referring to little babies who died in these Islamofascist attacks as little Eichmanns.

Little Eichmanns 

Coined by this long-haired professor at a college in Colorado. Refers to 9/11 Twin Towers victims. Something about how they are/were part of some evil corporate machine/conspiracy thing. Taken from name Adolf Eichmann who oversaw The Final Solution under Adolf Hitler. The university has taken bullshit because of it.
Holy shit, you work in finance? You little Eichmann, you!

I mean I guess bro

a word of expression to when you give up on comprehending someone's words of ignorance, stupidity, absurdity or are too exhausted to formulate a proper response.

Commonly seen in TikTok comment sections in replies to lazy attempts at humor, overconfidentally incorrect statement, or an over-the-top comment or when someone completely misses the mark on something.
"actually... incorrect statement, hope this helps!"

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!
