Marley's Razor

The idea that one's admission to a greater offense is not conclusive evidence of the commission of a lesser offense.

Proposed by Kmele Foster and derived from Bob Marley's "I Shot the Sheriff," in which the narrator admits to shooting the sheriff, but not the deputy.
"I'm looking at the Trump administration's response to the criticism that they're overstating things or that the Iranian strike actually went badly, when it does in fact seem like one of those cases where Marley's Razor applies, and while they may lie with some great regularity, it might be the case that this time, they are more right than wrong, and that the strike was potentially a lot more effective than they thought." Kmele Foster on Tangle podcast, 6/29/25.

Tobacco Medley

The floating remnants of a massive shit that include, but not limited to, lettuce, corn, red pepper skins, or any other leafy green that are left behind after flushing once and for some reason has a tobacco smell to it. Mostly found in office bathrooms where people rush in a shit.
Big Gary must have eaten all of those free mini breakfast burritos cause he punished the office toilet and left a Tobacco Medley. He's gotta look before flushing.
