The law of accumulating catastrophe. Often applied to nautical situations. Often a disaster beginning with one simple error that causes a domino effect.
Bill was sailing along when a shackle parted on the jib stay. The mast fell over the side. When Bill tried to engage the engine, the prop picked up some of the rigging and stalled. The wind and current pushed his boat until it ran aground on the beach. He had become an unwitting victim of Beare's law of accumulating catastrophe.

Claire: Mariano says that you are always wrong and that I am awesome and perfect and amazing.
Jerry: Not true, and did he actually say that?
Claire: Mariano's law say that it is, and that he did.

Get the Gurneys Lawmug. The woman who doesn’t come to your wedding because she has more important things to do, yet expects you to pay for half of her wedding and will upend the entire family unless she gets her way. She is usually supported by your mother-in-law who somehow always takes her side in every possible argument.
Your sister-in-law thinks she’s entitled to you paying for half her wedding yet she has the audacity to not even come to your wedding.

Get the Sister-in-lawmug. Literally what you think it is. The laws of physics when it comes to sex.
Basically, there are 3 laws that have been developed by T.A.P (don't worry about full form)
Law #1: You do you (no, don't ef yourself, just be you)
Law #2: Go with the flow (let things happen as they're happening)
Law #3: In the moment (literally. just be in the moment. don't get so caught up in your head)

Get the Laws of PhysSexmug. As the duration of a film set grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Harvey Weinstein (if not jokingly) approaches 1.
Coined by a Mr. Louis of the CUNY Brooklyn College Film Department based on his observations of others on different sets.
Like Godwin's Law for film sets.

*On a film set, Person 1 walks by brushes against Person 2*
Person 2: Hey, don't touch me!
Person 3 (to Person 1): Are you trying to be Harvey Weinstein or something?
Person 1: Now hold on a sec...
Person 4: This sounds like a cheap, lazy example of "Louis's Law".
