Probadance Theory

Probadance Theory: A conceptual framework that integrates principles from Bayesian epistemology and critical rationalism to create an adaptable and self-correcting hierarchy of event likelihoods. The term combines "probability" and "dance" to emphasize its dynamic and evolving nature in organizing, evaluating, and updating beliefs about the likelihood of various events.
Ever since I started applying the Probadance Theory to my decision-making, I've been able to assess situations with greater clarity and adaptability.

jazz theory

When two people in a relationship both seem to like jazz, the relationship never works out. You either have to introduce them to it or they absolutely hate it. No in between. This will cause the relationship to maybe last.
Did you hear that James and Chloe broke up because of jazz theory?

Four Humors Theory

An ancient and outdated medicine theory that states that a being's health is maintained through a balance of four bodily fluids, and an imbalance of such cause diseases. This theory heavily implies that such fluids regulate personalities, and is the basis of the four temperaments (Choleric, Melancholic, Phlegmatic, Sanguine).

The four bodily fluids are composed of:

- Blood, which causes sociable, extroverted, and comedic personality. See Sanguine
- Phlegm (Pus, Mucus, Saliva, Sweat), which causes reserved and introverted personality. See Phlegmatic
- Black Bile (Spleen, Cancer), which causes sad and depressed personality. See Melancholic
- Yellow Bile (Gallbladder, Vomit, Feces), which causes short-tempered, ambitious, and aggressive personality. See Choleric

Therefore, to combat diseases, one must get rid of excess humor, such as bloodletting. Temperature and humidity of the body such as Hot, Cold, Dry, and Wet are implied to be the balancing of humors. Hence, some might believe that this theory is the earliest attempt to understand Homeostasis, the regulation of biological mechanism. Originating from Ancient Greek thinkers and possibly spread as far into China, this theory persisted well into the 19th Century, in which Germ Theory becomes the foundation of modern medicine and discarded this 2300-years old theory.
Four Humors Theory allows for the erroneous understanding of diseases that plagued Ancient, Medieval, and Early Modern times.

Bloodletting is a dangerous practice that was invented due to Four Humors Theory.

Medieval and Early Modern doctors believed that injecting Mercury into the patient will balance the humors, as per stated by the Four Humors Theory.

Godzilla Theory

When you lower your expectations so low that whatever happens can't be any worse.

Everyone Talked shit about the movie that I went in thinking it was going to be the worst movie of all time. Came out thinking, hey that was alright.... Godzilla Theory was born. Lower your expectations and whatever it is will be good.

Vancouver Autism Theory

Anyone who isn't from Vancouver, Canada, has observed a peculiar trend among those who are born and raised there. Native Vancouverites often come across as cold, socially awkward, envious, insecure and gossipy. Additionally, many of the men exhibit notably feminine traits.

Some of their preferred pastimes involve gossiping about friends behind their backs, fabricating stories about them, and sitting with their legs crossed in a typically feminine manner. It's also uncommon to find one who is over 6 feet tall, and many have either chubby or scrawny build.

Everyone not from Vancouver seems to think they are insecure autistic weirdos
