Seth's Law

Internet law which states, "Any conversation about gay marriage on an online forum will eventually end when someone mentions Sodom and Gomorrah, thus starting a new argument about biblical interpretation."

jeremy0: what do you all think about the new gay marriage decision in cali? I think it's a great step in the right direction.
b1go7ybastard: HASN'T ANYONE EVER HEARD OF SODOM AND GOMORRAH?!? ALL FAGGOTS ARE SINNERS! GOD SAYS SO! ITS RIGHT THERE READ THE BOOK
betterMinded: Sodom and Gomorrah is not a condemnation of homosexuality ...
EvenBetterMind: I invoke Seth's Law

Law Firm

A firm of lawyers or a firm of attorneys, both nouns being interchangable.

I was tired of losing my car insurance and paying an arm and a leg so I hired an entire lawfirm for the cost of a cup of coffee a day thanks to lawyerlink.us!

Barner's Law

Barner's Law states that eventually, no matter if the odds are even beyond impossible, the outcome of a situation is bound to change. This is most commonly used during the ESPN Streak for the Cash game. Depsite a team's record, composure, ability, experience, or any other factor to be considered, Barner's Law states that while on Streak for the Cash, this team will eventually experience the second outcome (ie. if the team is winning a lot, they will lose, or vice versa.). See also law of averages

After winning all their games in the World Cup, The Netherlands experienced Barner's Law in the World Cup Finals resulting in a loss and a streak breaker on Streak For the Cash.

Barrel Law

In southern United States Communities; a barrel is fixed in a position downtown, usually on a downtown square for the purposes of determining age of consent. A gentleman will place the young lady in question inside the barrel, should she be able to see over the top of that barrel, she is deemed to be legal for sexual relations. Thought to have originated in Estonia, known for their own "keg laws". Brought to the United by Andrus Hallur in the mid 1700's. First used in the US in Savannah Georgia where Hallur ran a fudgery and bait shop.

Willie was very excited to meet Wanda, a young deaf mute girl. Before he defiled her in the back of his buggy, he had to take her down to the barrel to see if she passed the local Barrel Law. Thankfully, after getting up on her toes, she was able to see over the top. Willie was then legally able to make her a woman.

Griffin's Law

1. Buy high, Sell low

2. If you can lose money in the stock market you will; a variation on Murphey's law.

I lost $100,000 selling my home in Dublin, but I followed Griffin's Law.

Stocks occasionally go up in value so that some make money; but Griffin's law be damned, I never do.

Martino's Law

1) A statute used in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania. States that for a couple to raise or adopt a foster child, they must first have a natural child of their own. Used to prevent mis care or child abuse in the county.

2) A slang word used to relate to unfit parents.

1) I heard those people in that blue house wanted to adopt, but they can't because Martino's Law won't let them.

2) I don't know about that couple at the end of the street. I think somebody better turn them in for violating Martino's Law.
