Daughtery Principle 

The Daughtery Principle, named after American football coach Duffy Daughtery (1915-1987) of Michigan State University, states that: “A tie is like kissing your sister.” While both evolutionary psychology theory and sociological theory would predict that this familial phenomenon would lead to osculatory outcome dissatisfaction, it has not been systematically tested except possibly in West Virginia and Vermont.
Football, basketball. and basketball have such a horror of the Daughtery Principle being enacted that play continues through overtime or extra innings until the tie is broken.

Adolf, Elmer, and Cletus are all examples of once more common names that were affected by name-killer associations. It is still open whether Monica will suffer this same effect.

douchebag index

The douchebag index (DBI) is a statistic that yields the number of days since a person last bathed. It is found by multiplying the number of visible tattoos (VT) by the number of missing teeth (MT).

DBI = VT X MT
This dude's douchebag index is 27, meaning that he hasn't bathed in about four weeks. He has nine gross tattoos and three missing teeth.
