kind of like the Hoodie theory except instead of hooides this is the theory that lads automatically look cuter when they have a sleeve over there mouth or are chewing a cup

Get the sleeve theorymug. the Phonetic Temperature Theory is a theory that states that as average temperature of a native speaker's location decreases over a long span of time, the verb-consonant ratio of the native speaker's words decreases, and that speech quickens and hardens in colder temperature. Secondly, This theory also states the vice versa; as average temperature of a native speaker's location increases over a long span of time, the verb-consonant ratio of the native speaker's words increases, and that speech slows and smooth-ens in warmer temperature. Thirdly, this theory also states that pronunciation changes quicker when the average temperature of a native speaker's location changes quicker, and that pronunciation changes slower when the average temperature of a native speaker's location changes slower.
Person 1: How can I predict when the pronunciation of a word will change?
Person 2: with Phonetic Temperature Theory, we can do this by 1. knowing how long the current pronunciation has existed for, 2. knowing the differences in local average temperature at the beginning of pronunciation usage to now, 3. knowing previous pronunciation of the preceding form of the word, and using IPA slope to predict future pronunciation and use multiplication (local average temperature now - local average temperature at the beginning of pronunciation usage)/(time between beginning of pronunciation usage and now), if the value is positive (meaning the local temperature got warmer) then shift clockwise on the IPA chart (k -> g), this is the reasoning for why Latin "catta" became "gato" because the Spanish/Portuguese climates are slightly warmer than the Ancient Roman climate.

Get the Phonetic Temperature Theorymug. Critical republican theory is to take anything considered woke and assume people of color to blame and indoctrinate children when in reality the Republicans are just racist
Matt walsh had a critical republican theory that schools teaching about race is making him look bad so he got upset and cried over woke media

The Great Head Theory argues that if you recieve amazing head the first time you have intecourse with a partner, you should not persue a relationship with that person. As they have too much experience from previous relationships/partners. Also who gives crasy head the first time they sleep with someone, except when they a hoe?
Furthermore, the theory concludes that, when finding a partner its critical to settle for mid head.

I was considering wifing this throat goat, however The Great Head Theory convinced me to settle for someone giving less sloppy topp.

Get the The Great Head Theorymug. A dismissive phrase invented as a lazy insult toward women with septum rings. It’s most often used when the person insulting can’t actually respond to what a woman with a septum piercing is saying — so instead of addressing her point, they reduce her to her jewelry.
It’s not really a “theory” at all — it’s a cop-out comeback.
People lean on “Septum Theory” when they’re out of arguments, turning someone’s appearance into the debate itself.

Her: “That’s actually factually incorrect, here’s the source.”
Him: “Uhh… Septum Theory.”
Translation: “I don’t have a real argument, so I’ll just insult your piercing.”
Her: Says anything that goes against men in general
Him: Septum theory strikes again.
Translation: I have no argument.
Aka "Septum Theory" Theory. The theory that men will find anything they can to try an degrade a woman, logical or not.

Get the "Septum Theory" Theorymug. Wow! That is a long ass article that says absolutely nothing. And you got paid for that. In it they basically say that 'NPC theory doesn't address how complicated the mind is and nudging and priming have replication issues in studies.' That's it. It wasn't a theory. It was a simile used to describe protesters (specifically) who have an absolute sophisticated understanding of topics that is fed to them from the top down and denotes how they do little more than run that script when the are speaking on those topics.
Hym "And 'Main Character Syndrome' is just more evidence that you idiots are treating propositions as though it's newton's first law and that for every proposition there is and equally true opposite position. But Main Character Syndrome isn't a thing. It relates to the soft solipsism that I always talk about but BOTH NPC theory AND Main Character Syndrome are blatant misrepresentations of what I actually said. I also wrote a Theory of Mind that was later used to create AI. So, lie of ommission. Reductio ad absurdum. And as far as the priming and nudging... I know EXACTLY what it's going to do in my case."

There's a nice VISUAL introduction to group theory which is (imo) watchable at mid-high school levels (15+ yo ish): 3Blue1Brown's video currently titled "Group theory, abstraction, and the 196883-dimensional monster"
