Barnham's Law

A law dealing with attempts to fix things that states: "If one tries to fix something long enough, one will eventually either fix the problem or render it unfixable."

I tried to fix my scratched halo 3 disc and after a while I ended up cracking it. Therefore, I have arrived at the second possible outcome of Barnham's law.

Melanie's Law

Best summed up as :: "but fuck me, right?"

This is definitely a case of Melanie's Law. That would never happen to anyone else.

Snowball's Law

Like Godwin's law, but with Orwell instead of Hitler.

As an online discussion grows longer and more heated, the probability of a comparison involving the literature of George Orwell approaches 1.

Named after a character in Animal Farm.

What budget little prick invoked Snowball's law this time?

The Squidward Law

A law in Tv shows (more specifically cartoons) in which a character has to always get an unfair and unreasonable amount of torture as a result of karma, exactly like Squidward, hence the name.

Guy: Why does this character always get tortured a lot?
Guy 2: Well, what you are seeing is The Squidward Law in action.

Apollo's Law

Any Internet discussion on a topic relating to Outer Space or Space Exploration which goes on for long enough will eventually lead to someone saying that Space exploration or Space itself is a lie/hoax.

This usually refers to Flat Earthers who don't believe that Outer space exists yet this isn't exclusive to them as some people do believe that space exists but that missions have only reached Earth orbit and not to the Moon or the other planets.

"Oh great, Another Flat Earther in the replies of a NASA tweet, Apollo's Law strikes again!"
