Adam's Law

Named after Sinn Féin leader, Gerry Adams. Similar to Goodwin's law, this variation is an Irish version. When a topic is mentioned by an Irish person or on an Irish forum, as the length of the discussion grows, the probability approaches one that

(1) the IRA, Sinn Féin, "the troubles", Northern Ireland or The Irish Civil War will be mentioned.
What the hell, this forum title was about New Zealand planning on changing their flag and a mere 5 posts in, Adam's Law strikes!

DeWitt’s Law

"The strange cousin to Godwin’s Law ... that equal marriage rights can rarely be discussed by conservatives without a double entendre eventually being deployed typically related to something being shoved down someone’s throat"

Commenter 2: DeWitt’s Law in three, two, one...
Commenter 3: You damn Democrats, stop wanting to shove your gays down my children's throats!

O'Brien's Law

There is nothing that the right or the centre of UK politics won't try to evade responsibility for by blaming Corbyn. Named after LBC shock jock James O'Brien.
O'Brien's Law strikes again. Whatever the topic it's all Corbyn's fault.

Benny’s law

Benny’s law is a social phenomenon that occurs when a discussion about role playing games (RPGs) eventually transitions into a discussion about Fallout: New Vegas.
Person 1: “I love it when RPGs have a good revenge story.”
Person 2: “I think Fallout: New Vegas has the best revenge story.”
Person 1: “I am so tired of Benny’s law always occurring in our conversations.”
Person 2: “What are you talking about? It isn’t bad to like New Vegas is it?”
