linux box 

Linux box is a type of "box" that runs... linux, surprise surprise.

A box is geek speak for a computer. It's based on the fact that no matter what marketing spin and terrible contoured shapes corporations put on computers, they are still basically beige boxes.
Person A: So what do you have at home?
Person B: A couple Windows systems, a Mac... my pride and joy is my linux box.

linux-box 

An X-Box that runs Linux. This was unintentional by Microsoft, and now it is to their own faults that their only game console promotes another OS company. Ha ha. Of course, some fiddling needs to be done to the Sex-Box that only linux geeks would know how or bother to do.
Who would bother with LinuX-Box anyway? Linux sucks, and X-Box blows.
A small piece of information. Derived from the word ken, used often in the scottish language and is synonymous with knowledge.
Person 1: "Hey I don't get this shit. How do you solve this problem?"
Person 2: "I got that one. Give me some kenlets on this assignment and I'll help you w/ that one."

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!
