that's my ball

The phrase "that's my ball," as used by DDG during Kai Cenat's Streamer University event, is a slang term referring to someone you are romantically or affectionately interested in, often implying a close connection like "my girl" or "my person."

It gained traction after DDG used it to refer to India Love during a livestream, sparking viral attention on platforms like TikTok. The phrase can also carry a playful or lighthearted tone, sometimes used jokingly to claim someone as "yours" in a casual or flirtatious context.
"Yo, that's my ball, don't try to steal her vibe!" (meaning: "That's my girl, don't mess with her!")

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.
