Misadministration

A misadministration is something that occurs while giving a test or exam of some sort. A misadministration is usually when a student is caught cheating or talking or really doing anything other than breathing. A misadministration usually happens when a teacher isn't at school the day of their own test, this also means that they can blame anything on anyone and not have to have any prove at all. A misadministration in fact usually isn't a misadministration at all.

Female Math Teacher: "I heard from someone that while I was absent yesterday that there was an misadministration."
All Students: "No, we just took the test like we were supposed to."
Female Math Teacher: "Well it doesn't matter you are going to all get zeros unless you retake a much harder version of it."

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!
