Conservation of Effort

Doing the most amount of work in the least amount of time, using the least amount of effort.

Guy1 "Dude how does that guy get straight A's while doing almost no work?"

Guy2 "Idk, he probably uses the conservation of effort"

Guy1 -"Damn, i should start using that too"

Conservation of Femboy Ratio

The term refers to a phenomenon where the percentage of fembois in a given population is always about the same.

For instance, if 10% of a town is femboys then approximately 10%, or 1 person in a 10 people gathering, will be a femboy.

Karl: Man! We can use some femboy in our 9 people group!
Mark: We just gotta get one more person and there will be a femboy among us. It's the conservation of femboy ratio.
Karl: That's kinda sus.

Conservation of momentum

The act of burping and farting at the same time.

*burps and farts at the same time*
"Nice demonstration of the conservation of momentum."

Conservation of Energy Harnessing

The cosmic grift of making sure every single joule works for you, forever. It’s about building perfectly closed-loop systems where energy is never lost, only transformed and reused indefinitely. Think of a perpetual motion machine, but one that's actually legit because it's a perfectly sealed system in a frictionless environment (like a superconductor ring in space) or one that's constantly topped up by an ambient source like quantum fluctuations. The goal is 100% efficiency, chasing the dream of a machine that, once started, powers itself and its functions for eternity.

Example: "The Dyson Sphere isn't just collecting star juice; it's a masterclass in conservation of energy harnessing. The civilization inside recycles waste heat into light, kinetic energy back into electricity, and even thought into computational work—a perfectly balanced, closed thermodynamic book."

Conservation of Causality Theory

A principle proposing that causality is subject to a conservation law—that the total amount of causal structure in the universe remains constant. Conservation of Causality suggests that you can't create new causes or destroy old effects; you can only rearrange causal relationships. This has implications for time travel (you can't create paradoxes because causality is conserved), for quantum mechanics (entanglement redistributes causality), and for free will (our choices are causal transactions, not violations). It's causality as a budget: you can spend it, but you can't print it.

Conservation of Causality Theory "Time travel stories always have paradoxes—kill your grandfather, you're never born. Conservation of Causality says: can't happen. Causality is conserved; you can't create a loop that breaks the budget. Time travel might be possible, but paradoxes aren't—causality won't allow it."

Law of Conservation of Happiness

One of the several laws of life that states that in order for one to attain a state of happiness, another must become unhappy.

Chief was having a bad day. In order to fill his happiness bag, he decided it best to make the division stay late to take inventory of everything in the shop.

Further proof of the Law of Conservation of Happiness...

Law of conservation of hardness

Law of conservation of hardness says that when one man gets a hard-on, another man has to become soft.

"Foster was banging this hot chick the other day when I walked in on them. I was watching them going at it and was getting a hard-on and at that same moment foster saw me there with a boner a lost his boner. This is the Law of conservation of hardness at its best."
