Holy shit! The Prodigy wrote a book!? OOOOHHH! He predicted black holes 27 years before we even theorized their existence and 40 years before we found one!? HA! Brilliant! I’d expect no less! I’m totally like that guy! EXCEPT IN REVERSE!!!
*Random banging and clattering*
Iam “What... What are you doing? What’s going on here? Why is the trash-can sitting on top of a pile of garbage?”
Hym *mumbling* “It needs to be reversed... Only I can do it... reverse it...”
Iam “Reverse? Why are all your clothes on backwards? Wait... Is this about that reversibility theory video we watched?”
Hym “Help me flip the fridge upside down.”
Iam “What? No! You know that’s now what he meant...”
Hym “Wait! Increase the temperature of the freezer and then decrease the temperature of the fridge! DOUBLE REVERSE!!!”
Iam 🤦 ♂️ “Just don’t break anything....”
Hym *throws brick* *glass shatters* “I reversed the thing you said!”
Iam 😑

The Hat Theory is Félix "xQc" Lengyel's opinion that, even if a big part of success is luck, its oneself responsibility to try and get it
"You know, if in life you always show up and you get a participation ticket everyday, at some point, you'll hit the juice. Even if you show up and you don't get it 100 times in a row maybe at some point you'll get it. But if you have no names in the hat, how can you expect to be drawn from the hat? You can't. Every day you have to put your name in it. At some point, it goes juicer mode. You've just gotta believe in yourself and what you do"

Lay-up: Asking out someone who’s chopped and pretty easy to get with. “Everyone warms up with lays, apart of every players bag”
Mid-range shot (Middy): Going for someone who’s debatable if you should go for that or not but it takes some effort, but still within reach. “Every great player has to shoot some middys sometimes, keep them humble.”
3-pointer: Tryna bag someone attractive, these shots are harder to take but not out of reach, one could go in. . “3 balls are essential to add to the bag, needa be proud of the shots you take.”
Logo shot: Pursuing someone extremely attractive and out of your league. Likely won’t succeed, but worth a shot. Do not recommend but every once in a while the shot is there. ONLY FOR 10s “Chooc’s favorite shot.”

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.

Accountant 1: oh, crap... we forgot to add $1 million in income from product X sales to the budget
Accountant 2: oh, fudge... product Y's revenue is inflated by $980K...oh wait... based on the Theory of Offsetting Mistakes all is well, the numbers we gave the CEO are still valid, yay.
Girl: oh, crap... your condom broke
Dude: oh, fudge... you miscounted your days, your period is due today at 8pm.... you are not pregnant, yay.

The idea that any person who has the ability to sleep for an extended period of time will be interrupted by external events that cause you to have a shortened sleep schedule.
My Psych professor taught me about Lauren's Theory today, and it seems to explain why so many people don't receive 8 hours of sleep.
