R(etroactively) A(mended) P(urchase) E(xperience)
A retroactively amended purchase experience is when a company changes the terms of the sale, after the sale. Companies can do this nowadays because most of us use cloud software, otherwise known as SaaS, Software as a Service. Since we have to connect to someone else's computer to USE our software, they have the ability to deny us access to this software without accepting new terms, that they can change on us at any given time. Since consumer protection in the United States is a joke, they face no consequences for doing so.
An example of this can be found with Adobe, when they changed the terms of the sale to include terms allowing them to look through your content.
Or when Adobe took software you paid for, and disallowed you from activating it, perpetual licenses are not perpetual licenses as long as you must connect to someone else's computer to use what you paid for.

least said, soonest mended
"It's best to follow the advice of 'least said, soonest mended' and not rehash the same disagreements we've been over multiple times. Let's focus on finding a constructive solution rather than dwelling on past mistakes."

open-minded

I am open-minded about the existence of the Judeo-Christian God. If he appears in the immortal flesh in the heavens to me and a few billion other people and manifests his power openly in such a manner that it cannot possibly be a dream, illusion, hallucination or anything of the sort, I'll accept he is there. In the meantime, it is more befitting the heritage of the human intellect to ignore such figures as mythical.
Open-mindedness is a virtue, but when dealing with New Age salespeople it is important to remember that if you keep your mind too open, your brain may fall out.
