First Law of Ecumomics

Derived from the physics principle of Newton's First Law:

The First Law of Ecumomics states: "A dick/pussy getting action will tend to continue to get action, while a dick/pussy not getting any will tend to continue to not get any, unless acted upon by an external makeover force." Also known as ecumomic inertia.
"I just keep getting pussy lately! I don't think it's ever going to stop. Thank goodness for the First Law of Ecumomics!"

Trickle Down Theory (non-economic theory) 

The theory that a male standing in front of a urinal--no matter how much he squeezes, pulls, pushes, wipes, or waits--has a 100% probability of urinating after he has already pulled up his pants and finished relieving himself. Being a theory, it is impossible to prove, but the experience of billions of men of all ages and throughout all time have almost made the statement a truism.
Alex (while relieving himself in front of a urinal): Hey, didn't Reagan say taxing the rich less would mean more jobs and economic opportunities for simple folk like us?

Ken (while relieving himself in an adjacent urinal): I think so. Well, hey, he gave it his best shot. Now hurry up, we're going to be late for the foreclosure hearing. (Zips up.)

Alex: Alright. (Zips up, then feels a trickle of liquid go down his leg.) WTF?? Damn you trickle down theory (non-economic theory)!!!

Ken: Haha. Got you again, huh? Looks like I was one of the lucky ones. (Feels a trickle down his leg) MOTHER#$%^*@!!!!!!!!
