Paranoid Android

Originally used to describe the character Marvin in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy books and radio plays. Marvin was a robot with emotions, namely: depression. His sorrowful life was your good time!

It was also a hit song by Radiohead on their third album, OK Computer. Both the name of the album, the song name and a line of the lyrics of the song are taken from Hitchhiker's Guide.

Marvin's most well-known line was "Life...don't talk to me about life"

The line in Radiohead - Paranoid Android that was a tribute to HHGTTG was "When I am king, you will be first against the wall"

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!
