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"
- David DeWitt (Twitter @TheRevDeWitt)
Commenter 1: ... and that's why we need equal rights protection under the law.
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!
Commenter 2: Ding!

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!

Person 1: Hey, did you hear that Jimmy was rejected?

Person 2: Yeah, the girl who he liked was taken, so he followed the Curve Law.

Eddinburg’s law

A law stating that physical pain accumulates. So if somebody hits you lightly multiple times, you can take the sum total of the entire amount of force they applied to you, and apply it back on them in one punch. So basically if someone hits you with 10 pounds of force 10 times, you can hit them with 100 pounds of force once.
Andre: “dude! Why’d you hit me so hard?! I was barely tapping you.”
Cole: “bro, it’s Eddinburg’s law. Pain accumulates so I thought I’d let it stack up and biff ya real good.”
