Not Too Small To Jail

People who are poor and outcasts in society that are jailed for offenses that are specifically designed to harass, segregate, and disenfranchise them. For example, homeless being arrested for sleeping on a park bench, or vagrancy laws for having no source of income. Or resisting arrest, without resisting, or without charges for the arrest. In some cases trumped charges such as assault on a law enforcement officer are added for those who are not disobeying a law. These charges can be extremely serious and intimidating, even when they have no basis in fact.

When people are protesting they may also be subject to harassment and intimidation, especially when the police are gooning for the 1%.
City Commission Meeting
Speaker one:
There are homeless people in our parks. One was charging his cell phone from a City power pole. And another was drawing with chalk on the sidewalk. This is serious. Pretty soon some charity will be feeding people in the park.
Speaker two:
These homeless offenders were clearly not: "Not Too Small To Jail"

1. Everyone who in fact is not Sally, Emily for example
2. Literary character "Not Sally" from the Books "Not Sally and the Agents of DUCK" and "Not Sally and the Pirate's Treasure." "not Sally is the main character in these books and gets her name from an amnesiac person who calls himself Steve and trips over her. Steve, not knowing her name asks if her name is Sally and since her name is not Sally and Steve is a stranger will not tell him her real name. Steve goes on to call her "Not Sally" for lack of a better name and even though eventually he discovers her real name continues to refer to her as "Not Sally" or NS for short.
“Uhm, ok Steve, I’m good. So what am I doing here and if you didn’t give me the bump on my head, who did and why am I in front of this what I can only describe as a shed talking to a guy who calls himself Steve and me Not Sally?”

2) Not Sally is a literary character and the heroin of the Mystery Adventure Series "Not Sally." Her real name is Nancy and she solves mysteries and goes on adventures with her father Not Steve whose name is actually Bob.
I’m not going down that rabbit hole again, we exist, I am Steve, you are Not Sally, I have amnesia and we are lost. -Not Sally and the Agent's of Duck

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).
