Surfy's Law

A law with corollaries outlining the Murphy's Law of Surfing:

When you are paddling out to the take off zone, there will inevitably be a huge set of waves that breaks on your head and insures that you will be exhausted and demoralized.

First Corollary of Surfy's Law: When you finally make it to the line-up after paddling through a set, there will be no sets of waves breaking that you can catch or ride.

Second Corollary of Surfy's Law: When you do take off on a wave and ride it to the inside, there will be another set that arises to impede your paddle out to the line-up.
"Dude, I got worked by six mackin' double overhead freight trains on my paddle out. It was like total enforcement of Surfy's Law!"

Steve's Law

Any debate of any minority in the public eye, will eventually lead to the person with an opposing opinion being labeled as anti-minority (e.g. racist, feminist) by the person that can't backup their opinion outside of feelings.
Me: You know, I really don't like the affordable care act, I'd prefer to have an actual choice in my health care.
You: But the affordable care act provides healthcare to millions of people.
Me: Well, most of those were people already enrolled in medicare programs. Do you know how many people have lost health care or have had increased premiums as a result of Affordable Care laws?
You: You're just a racist.
Me: You've invoked Steve's Law and have forfeited the argument.

mulaney's law

Mildly inconvenienced people, typically white, comparing relatively harmless, "insults," to the n-word. This is in relation to a quote by John Mulaney, which goes, "If you're comparing the badness of two words, and you won't even say one of them, that's the worse word."
First, "ok boomer," was controversial, and now I can't say Karen? Mulaney's Law strikes again!

law porn

Advertising material sent by one law school to faculty at others, in the effort to improve its "peer ranking" score in the U.S. News & World Report annual law school rankings. The effort is generally considered ineffective and wasteful. Public reports credit Professor Pamela Karlan of Stanford Law School with coining the term (and disapproving of the practice).
Prof. 1: "Did you see that ridiculous law porn today from XYZ Law School?"

Prof. 2: "Nah. I don't hardly even read my school mail any more, since it's gotten so full of that crap."

The 3rd law

The 3rd law encompasses all man laws. The 3rd law states there are no other laws. Man laws encompass: The divinity of food, the respect of the shotgun seat laws, the respect of another man/bro/broksi's girl, the code of silence (i.e. when a man's has relations with a girl and severely regrets it, it never happened), etc. Punishment for breaking the 3rd law can vary among bro circles, but is always HARSH. The 3rd law is the most sacred concept known to humans.
He broke the 3rd law... That's grounds for castration.
