It’s that women (maybe men as well?) with septum rings will allow and sometimes demand, that their past trauma or past adversity embody their personality. Self reflectively, they can maintain a state of perpetual victimhood which in turn allows them to maintain a state of constant and “justified” mental turmoil. They’re then allowed to make themselves the center of most conversations by explaining why their past trauma relates to seemingly benign, but ultimately offensive (because of aforementioned trauma) topics, and has led them to no longer have a positive outlook on said topic or in life.
Septum piercing theory checks out for this one.

The theory that (regarding any upcoming physics test) you either know it or you don't. Not to be confused with the Ridings Postulate, which states that you either know it or you don't regarding ANY test, not simply physics. Applying these ideas often results in failure.
Me - "Dude, I have a physics test tomorrow! Fuck!"
Ridings - "Same. But I'm not studying, according to my theory, the Ridings Theory - in physics, you either know it, or you don't."

This theory recognizes that humans are not perfect and that for every mistake in a model or schedule
there will be another "mistake" in somewhat equal scope to offset each other, hence rendering the model or budget still valid.
The idea behind is that things will anyway fall the way they fall and we cannot control for that.
The optimistic view is that this theory rejects Murphy's Law, the negligent take on it is the "Trust me, it will be OK" approach to life.
Decide where you want to be.
