The law simply states: You do not go to Denny's. You end up at Denny's.
Nobody wakes up
in the morning and thinks "
I'm going to go to Denny's later." If they do fully intend to go to Denny's, then Denny's Law takes effect in a slightly different fashion. A sequence of events will begin to unfold that will cause
literally anything else to happen, and after a day of insanity, they may still end up at Denny's, by chance alone.
Denny's Law is also colloquially referred to as "The 11th Commandment," by some. This was originally thought to be a joke, but archaeologists just uncovered a lost piece of Moses' tablet in the deserts around Mt. Sinai, which roughly reads: "Thou Shalt Not Arrive at
the house of Denny by predetermined intent, for to do so would be a sin; it is only acceptable to arrive there by chance, confusion, or the complete lack of an IHOP within an hours drive of ye location."
There is a small subculture of people known as "Denners," who spend their lives on a wild ride, attempting to end up at Denny's without actually meaning to do so at any given moment. For some, they find themselves continuously thwarted by the second form of Denny's law. But others, and they are few, have managed to catch on to something they call "The Dhenma Cycle," or "The Flow," which allows them to thoughtlessly end up at Denny's whenever it is the right moment for that to happen.
"Bro,
I don't even know how, but like, I'm at Denny's right now. The last thing
I remember is smoking a pile of weed at Grant's house, then I was standing on top of a building, then I was climbing a tree in my boxers at the park, and now I'm here and I think I have an elephant costume on or something..."
"Bruh that's Denny's Law.
Deal with it."
