I made up a person who got mad at people who are in relationships with people that like cartoons because it makes them child coded. And then I saw a tweet saying this very same thing in earnest the next day. Another classic example of Awls Law in action.

Get the Awls Lawmug. when something is or becomes legal, based on stipulations by a law.
Im just kidding, it doesnt mean shit. It's really just a heavily over used phrase we use to sound smart. 50% of the time it works all the time.
It's like going to Mcdonalds and ordering a cheeseburger with cheese.

"It's not my fault you signed docs on an A.R.M, your house payment is now $6080.27, and that's not something that was just made up. You owe it, legally by law "

Get the Side-Lawsmug. Terry's Law
Based on Godwin's Law which states that: "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one."
This adage shows that when an online discussion about the legalisation of certain drugs is created, it is inevitable that someone will instantly pipe in and state how it is really unfair that Alcohol, Tobacco and Caffeine are legal, while Cannabis, Cocaine and Heroin are still illegal in most places.
After a certain amount of time, the discussion becomes cyclical and utterly pointless, with both sides being completely unmoved by the arguement put forward by the opposing side.
Many will argue that prohibition has been proven to fail and point ot the rise of criminal gangs in early 20th Century United states of America, through illegal distillation and distribution of alcohol, coupled with speakeasies.
The other side will often point out that the prohibition of many recreational drugs is in the interest of the safety of the majority of the population.
Basically, and again in a similar vein to Godwin's law, this law states that the first person to argue for the legalisation of certain recreational drugs by using alcohol, tobacco or caffeine as a reference point instantly loses the arguement.

Get the Poe's Lawmug. Harrison's Law is used in relation to beliefs or faith but does not have to involve god or religion.
"Any belief that is based on no evidence is equal in rational validity to any belief you can invent on the spot."
"Any belief that is based on no evidence is equal in rational validity to any belief you can invent on the spot."
Harrison's Law us used to demonstrate to an irrational believer that their belief is completely unfounded in a way which makes sense. If you consider a belief that has no evidence to support it such as a belief in Zeus, then this belief is as rational and logical as believing in anything you can invent yourself.
The law is used to show "believers" that their belief could be anything at all and would still carry as much meaning, validity or usefulness as any fictional belief made up there and then.
