Dr: I'm missing Mrs. Smiths' chart again!

Medical Assistant: We by accidentally sent that to another office. We mixed up the charts. I'm on lunch.

Dr: You have to pay more attention this is just as unacceptable as the last 5 times you did this.

Medical Assistant: Why you getting an attitude with me?

Patient: What do you mean you can't find my chart? Aren't these things just filed alphabetically?!!

Medical Assistant: I don't like you tone with me, and besides we are very busy here right now please hold. To other MA's: Did anyone see Dancing with the Stars last night?

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!
