Sangamon's Principle

"The simpler the molecule, the better the drug. So the best drug is oxygen. Only two atoms. The second-best, nitrous oxide - a mere three atoms. The third-best, ethanol - nine. Past that, you're talking lots of atoms." From Neal Stephenson's Zodiac.

There is a little further background to this. The more complicated the molecule, the more unpredictable it is. Therefore, drugs like Cannabis, heroin,etc, are out of the window because of the increased chances of those complex substances fucking up your body.

Play it safe. Keep to Sangamons Principle.

"I used to be Straightedge, but now I adhere to Sangamons Principle."

"Why'd you change?"

"I like promiscuous sex and drink."

"Fair enough..."

Precautionary Principle

The idea that if the consequences are unknown and may cause harm or negative consequences, it is best to avoid making that decision or to proceed with caution.

Since the effect of CO2 emissions on the climate is still unclear, it is best to use the precautionary principle.

On General Principles

A term coined by Hunter S. Thompson, it's basically just a faster, cooler way of saying "because of basic morals(usually yours)". Often concerns inflicting violence on horrible people.

“That fucking monkey should be killed—or at least arrested—on general principles,”
-Hunter S. Thompson
