Vain Booking 

Constant, inane updates about every social move in someones life. Normally undertaken by those with a over zealous view of their own importance in others lives, or by those that realize their life is meaningless and try to buy social cred with ex school mates by these constant updates. Names and places mentioned are normally linked to profiles of people/bars/events.
Vain Booking:"**so excited** that I'm meeting Melanie and Quincy at the LimeBar tonight to drink VodkaSparklyBlues."

Translation: I'm still single, and so are my friends, we are going to get shitfaced where lawyers our Dads age hang out in the hope of getting me a sugar daddy.

Vain Booking:"Had the best lunch with Princess and Pony at UberCafe and had a Goats Ball Salad with lychees and a glass of Snotts Hill Riesling."

Translation: I have no class and my boyfriend/husband can't stand to be seen with my vapid ass in public, so me and my Jimmy Choo wearing sistas make each other feel important every Friday for lunch.

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!
