R(etroactively) A(mended) P(urchase) E(xperience)

A retroactively amended purchase experience is when a company changes the terms of the sale, after the sale. Companies can do this nowadays because most of us use cloud software, otherwise known as SaaS, Software as a Service. Since we have to connect to someone else's computer to USE our software, they have the ability to deny us access to this software without accepting new terms, that they can change on us at any given time. Since consumer protection in the United States is a joke, they face no consequences for doing so.

An example of this can be found with Adobe when they changed the terms of the sale to include terms allowing them to look through your content.

Or when Adobe took software you paid for, and disallowed you from activating it. perpetual licenses are not perpetual licenses as long as you must connect to someone else's computer to use what you paid for.

I really liked my $400 baby monitor, but now I have to pay extra for features it came with because the company did a R(etroactively) A(mended) P(urchase) E(xperience). I feel RAPEd!

e-pint

A way of saying thank you to someone for doing you a favour on the internet as you can't meet the person and buy them a real pint!

"My software version 2.6 is crashing can anyone help"
"yes, version 2.6 has a bug, you need to upgrade to version 2.7"
"Great that works! Thanks! I'm sending you an e-pint!"

The Double E

Anyone man with the initials EE that is abnormally good looking with the body of a gladiator who is successful in love & life. He loves small animals, God and his mother. Men wanna be him and ladies wanna be with him. Kinda like a shorter haired Fabio or Arnold Shwarzanegger circa 1980. Women have been known to put pictures of him on thier phone while being intimate with their husbands.

Your honor , our marriage was going great until the day "the Double E " showed up. Now how can I compete with that?
