shiny new toy

The new kid at school who gets all the attention because the kids all want to know what they're like and whether or not they'll be friends with him/her. Eventually, the "shiny new toy" factor wears off in about a week or two and the kid just becomes a normal student.

Kid #1: Hey, new kid! High five!
Kid #2: High five? Pshh, that's lame. Hey new kid, do I get a hug?
Kid #3: Me too! I want a hug first!
Kid #2: Back off, I saw the kid first!
Teacher: Kids, she is not a shiny new toy! Cut it out!
New kid: Umm...I think I'll just be going to homeroom now...

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).
