Person #1: "I believe marriage is between one man and one woman."
Person #2: "Well how would that have worked in the civil rights era?! Loving v. Virginia says we all have equal protection, you're just substituting Jim Crow for Tim Crow!"
Person #1: "I invoke Vaughan's Law."
Person #2: "Dammit... you win...

Get the Vaughan's Lawmug. The law which states that those people who claim to dislike something vehemently, secretly love it (e.g anti-gay pastors who are caught bumming a rent-boy). Named after Agneta Faltskog from ABBA - as anyone claiming to dislike ABBA is lying to themself...even Agneta Faltskog.

He’s the Above and Above and Beyond cult leader

Get the Orangeman's Lawmug. You can't control what makes your dick hard.
An excuse often used by men as a justification for getting off to shockingly offensive pornography.

Dude #1: Hey, check out this hot video of a gorilla doing a Cleveland Steamer on a nun.
Dude #2: that's sick!

Get the Foley's Lawmug. It's a law that allows any people on any website to roast other people until they either say something that is sexist or racist, or until they leave their house and have any device on them. If they leave the house and jump online, they can only view sites and can't type comments until they are in a private place like a house.

Get the Splacoo's Lawmug. The universal rule that Sean Bean can never be allowed to live throughout the entirety of any television program or movie in which he stars. For every show/film in which he survives, one of his fellow actors dies in real life.
"Dude, did you hear about (insert actor name here)?"
"Yeah, how'd he/she die?"
"Their director broke the law of Bean"
"What? That's insane!"
