troll trap

A troll trap is saying something stupid and awaiting a response from another person to correct or assist you. It is like putting a fishing line out waiting for someone to bite. When a person is dumb enough to reply, they are than tricked into a pointless and time-wasting chat.
Example:

Troll: "Why do they call it invincible if you can see it?"
Random person: "That isn't what invincible means."
Troll: "What are you talking about?"
Random person: "You are thinking of the term invisible."

Troll: "No, invisible means you can't get hurt."
Random person: "No that is what invincible means."
Troll: "No it doesn't, open a book you noob."
Random person: "Yes it does, you open the book, you are dumb, google it."
Troll: "I just did and it said it means you can't see it."
Random person: "That is wrong, what did you google?"
Troll: "Invincible."
Random person: "I just googled it and that is the definition of invisible."
Another random person: "Dude you just fell into a troll trap."

Troll Trap

When a person or group of people (usually those with lack of common sense, logic and reasoning) take obvious bait on social media and internet forums to express their unwanted and unwarranted opinions. A meaningless time consuming and time wasting thread (aka the trap) then ensues, which in turn produces entertainment for the rest of us!
After meticulously setting my trap line last night on Reddit, I woke up to find my troll trap had been triggered so I grabbed some popcorn and got comfortable 🍿.

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).
