thewhoraus 

Portmanteau of whore and thesaurus.

A person who arbitrarily laces their writing with high-register words, usually but not necessarily with the assistane of a thesaurus, in a way which is intended to impress the reader but does not actually add to the content or depth of the text.
"Hey, does anyone know a synonym of 'blah' that sounds more intellectual?" - Thewhoraus

"Does he think I'm that stupid? Replacing words with thesaurus entries is the oldest trick in the book." - A thewhoraus's English teacher

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.
