warez d00dz
Not to be confused with the casual Kazaa user, the regular IRC downloader, or the CD sharing home user, warez d00dz are part of the darkest internet subculture, alongside beasiality porn, virus d00dz, and hotornot.com. Warez d00dz usually copy the warez from their own software, breaking copy protection if need be. Warez d00dz could be found on the web (http) until the internet stock crash, after which they couldn't find any decent hosting places and took most of their work to IRC or pr0n sites.
Warez d00dz are best used and abused. Without them we would have trouble finding antiquated abandonware and obscure modern software titles, and even Kazaa needs it's sources -- most of which are on IRC. Their egos rest on how much illegal software they've accumulated and shared for all to see, so download a few files and keep the heads big, but -- heaven forbid -- don't become one!
Hang out in the related chatrooms but are not the same:
virus d00dz - Like hackers, but they write virii. Use names such as "D00M666".
drug d00dz - Functionally the same as a virus d00d, but lacks the technical skillz (i.e. programming). Writes in alternating caps or 1337 speak. Grows mushrooms in his desk drawers and deals hard to find substances like peyote. Use names such as "ShRoOmZ".
script kiddies - The AOL equivalent of the hacker community. Use names such as "linux".
1337 H4ck3rZ- jeff k - A typing dialect of the script kiddie community. Numbers are usually substituted for letters. Use names such as "Cyph0rk".

warez
Warez are 100% full versions of popular PC Programs which are downloaded via the internet. Although it is heavily illegal, Warez are being distibuted thru the internet thru many sources as you read this. I suggest you stop and go out there and find some right now, you'll save lots of money and have fun doing so at the same time. Like they say, It's only illegal if you get caught. ^_^

Utility beer
Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
