Wilson's law

Applied at times of superiority, that of politics to science, which holds that when A equals B, and B equals C, then A equals C, except where forbidden by law.
Consider Wilson's law as of opposite of Pareidolia, Mimicry, etc; Pattern recognition not at fault, drop hook with bait of what recon as rare thyself, hope can pull that fish up-board for: rarity spews back when measured by closed loop feedback.

Romero's Law

The point in a conversation of any topic where Zombies or the Undead are brought up. Similar to Godwin's Law, in that, whomever brings up Zombies has automatically lost the argument.
Original Post: "I have a question for you all. When recruiting/interviewing/hiring how do you rank qualities/qualifications of a candidate?"

Response: "I use one based on an old example of a previous work situation, but I leave out the names of clients. Then ask them how they would go about solving it. There is one that I'd like to use to test a persons character and reaction by throwing in something totally random to find out what they would say. Like, there's news that a zombie outbreak has happened in the city, what would you do next?. Something like that would open up a persons true character, but I'm not brave enough to bring that up, maybe you should and tell us how it goes ;D"

The response invoked Romero's Law

The Scopes Law

The term was coined by Gaming Steve Message Board member Logan Felipe in a thread discussing evolution*. The law is named after "the State of Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes", a court case that provides a well documented, real world example of the law in action. The law's creation was also partially inspired by Godwin's Law.

*Note: This entry is not in any way intended to reflect the views and opinions of the Gaming Steve Message Board. All views expressed belong solely to Logan Felipe.
The Scopes Law states: "When discussing evolution in the presence of a creationist, the discussion always becomes a religious debate".

Victor's Law

People who say stuff that for Example. "Why is X complaining about Y?" Yet, they never show proof of it.
But when you ask them for proof they never show it and say something like "I found it on a forum somewhere." But they never post screenshots of said thing.
Person 1: Why are people complaining about Insert something here.
Person 2: I checked but, nobody is complaining about it.
Person 1: That's because i found it somewhere on an forum.
Person 2: You must of skipped a few comments because i did see it somewhere!
Person 1: Citation is needed, this is Victor's Law. You show now proof and now no one will believe you.
