Stumponics 

A specific type of jargon used in the city of Portland, Oregon, U.S.A.

Portland, Oregon was nicknamed Stumptown in the mid 19th century, when the city's growth forced land to be cleared quickly to accommodate the growth, but the tree stumps were not immediately removed.

Currently there are 8 subcategories of Stumponics in PDX.

These subcategories pertain to each geographical and by nature social graphical region of the city. The regions divided by the Willamette River which runs South to North and sprawling Burnside Street which runs East to West.

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.

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!
