The $15 Theory

The theory that charging your friends $15 to hangout with you is moral and socially acceptable.

Often the theory is used when you irresponsibly buy something unreasonably expensive, then find an excuse to make your friends pay for it through indirectly using it.
"Hey guys, I bought this new console, so every time you guys come hangout and use it, I'll need you to pay $15. It's only fair!"
"I know you're spending the night, so have you ever heard of the $15 theory? Yeah, I'll need you to pay me $15 to sleep on my new couch."

Bronsted-Lowry/Brønsted–Lowry Acid-Base Theory

An acid/base definition that suggests an Brønsted–Lowry acid is any molecule that can donate a proton, and a Brønsted–Lowry base is any molecule that accepts the proton. Protons can be referred to as H+ or "hydrogen ions," so if you see those terms used in a textbook they all mean the same thing. When a Brønsted–Lowry acid gives its proton away, it is "deprotonated" and can now accept a proton; now that it has become an acceptor, it is referred to as a conjugate base. The same rule applies to Brønsted–Lowry bases: once they gain a proton (are protonated), they are known as conjugate acids.
student: i'm a little confused with this functional group. the reading says that the carboxylic acid (COOH) group loses its proton, H, making the formula COO−. now that there's a space on the oxygen that's vacant, could the group accept a proton in the empty space? wouldn't that make the group a base?
teacher: yeah, acids turn into things known as conjugate bases when they lose hydrogen ions. the space where a proton used to be is now available for bonding, and the group or molecule becomes a proton acceptor/Brønsted–Lowry base
that's how you use the Bronsted-Lowry/Brønsted–Lowry Acid-Base Theory

theory-function

A contra-referentialization of speculative realism's theory-fiction in which language (form) and function share a contrapositive relationship.

The basis of Hypermodernism.
Postmodernism argues that form follows function.

Theory-function the theoretical foundation of Hypermodernism argues that DESIGN follows function. Form is oriented as contrapositive to function.

Hypermodernism would use the meme and more metastatically the skeuomorph as a theory-function instance, ie., a meta-medium.

dead mall theory

Dead Mall Theory posits a multifaceted critique of modern
consumerism and the evolving landscape of digital and
physical spaces. Drawing inspiration from the eerie aesthetic
of the Backrooms and the nostalgic satire of vaporwave
Micro-culture, it explores the decline of traditional malls
as emblematic of broader societal shifts.
At its core, Dead Mall Theory echoes the sentiment of the
Dead Internet Theory, suggesting that just as malls become
"dead" when anchor stores vanish, online spaces are
increasingly dominated by bots and AI-generated content,
displacing genuine human interaction and agency. This
convergence reflects the erosion of authentic connection
and the commodification of both physical and virtual
environments under the pressures of mass production and
consumer capitalism.
Furthermore, Dead Mall Theory incorporates critiques of
materialism highlighting the societal consequences of
prioritizing acquisition and consumption over meaningful
experiences and relationships. Recent events have
accelerated these trends, pushing more people towards
virtual engagement and rendering certain physical spaces
obsolete. What will thenext generation be lacking as a result?
In essence, Dead Mall Theory serves as a commentary on the
intersection of economics, technology, and culture,
illustrating how the decline of malls mirrors broader shifts
in societal values and the evolving nature of public spaces
in the digital age.
The arcade is gone and i'm the only one in the foodcourt, Dead Mall Theory is in full effect here!

Bull-Calf theory

The sexual theory that females should only fuck Bulls(sexually dominant males that are usually African American) while the Cucks or calf’s sit and watch them fuck their wife's and gf’s and so on.
Did you see Professor Johnson’s Biology Lecture last Friday?
Yes he went over the Bull-Calf theory
Damn I missed the most important lecture this year
