Bootleg

In the EDM scene means a remix that was done by an unpopular (usually beginner) artist for or after an event and distributed via their social network profiles. Since EDM is an intellectual property wasteland where any copyrighted sound gets edited one way or another and pretty much everybody famous borrows from somebody else since at least the early 2010, producing a track titled "Me - My song (Somedude Bootleg)" roughly means they want in on the industry as well and want to get famous. Many of today's popular DJs have realeased bootlegged remixes at least once in their lifetime.
"Yo, check out that Calvin Harris remix! Sick, right?"
"That's not a remix, that's someone's bootleg"
"But it's sick still?"
"It's yours, isn't it?"

Bootleg Buddhist Bullshit

When some schmuck starts rambling about moral bullshit that they believe to be the objective truth. Usually happens when they themselves have no stakes in the matter and are just an onlooker. Not an actual Buddhist 9 out of 10 times,but you never know.
Example one:
Todd: "I can't believe Jerry shoved my wife down the stairs,I'm gonna slap that bastard!"
Frank: "Two wrongs don't make a right."
Todd: "Get off of your Bootleg Buddhist Bullshit,you don't even know me or my family."

Example two:
Todd: "I can't believe Jerry killed my wife,I'm gonna go on a revenge quest."
Some idiot who treats samurai movie stereotypes as actual moral code: "No,you mustn't go for revenge,it's objectively 100% bad according to the old man on the mountain."
Todd: "Fuck off with your Bootleg Buddhist Bullshit."

Example three:

Marcus: "Yeah,that austrian painter guy who did WW2 was a real piece of shit."
Jim: "You mean Hitler?"
Marcus: "Don't say his name,you give evil power by naming it."
Jim: "Marcus,what kind of Bootleg Buddhist Bullshit are you going off about? He's been dead for years."
