Outhouse Express

Mail client inferior to Thunderbird, Opera, KMail, etc.

If you personified Outhouse Express and Idiot Exploiter, I'm sure the two would enjoy anal with each other.

Netscape

A browser superior to Internet Explorer, but inferior to everything else.

NOTE: I re-submitted this because of a typo in the last version.

Everything else > Netscape > pen and paper > Internet Explorer

dial-up

Slow medium for connecting to the Internet, which some people STILL use because:
1. They can't afford broadband (understandable, unlike the following)
2. They don't know about other ways to connect
3. They've been brainwashed into thinking AOL is number one

I'm surprised dial-up isn't free.

ß

A German ligature that originally stood for 'sz', but can be transliterated as 'ss'. It is never found in Swiss German. It looks like a B, but sounds like an S. Compare to the boring language known as English, which only has the ligatures Æ and Œ, which are rarely used.

Face it, English is a boring language, and the chance of a cool ligature like ß entering it are zero to one million.

Firefox

An awesome web browser from Mozilla. It was originally derived from Mozilla's (Seamonkey) code, but now has plenty of coding of its own. It supports W3C's standards and is quite secure. Best of all, it doesn't have support for Microsoft's security hole (read: gate for hackers to enter your computer) known as ActiveX, nor does it have most of the problems Internet Explorer has.

Mozilla will pay anyone $500 bucks for volunteering to fix security holes in its software, which is free (yes, as in speech, but also as in beer). That's pretty generous.

Shine Get

An infamous bit of Engrish from the Japanese version of Super Mario Sunshine. It happened to make its way into the English (!!!) version of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door.

Wouldn't "Got Shine!" have been a better thing for the game to say?
