Scandirito's Law

A term coined by Michael Scandirito in response to Peggy Noonan's WSJ Opinion article titled "Get Ready for the Struggle Season" (posted on March 7th, 2019). It is inspired by the adage Godwin's Law. Whereas Godwin's Law refers to online discussions that have a reached a point in which there is a higher probability of encountering comparisons to Nazis and / or Hitler, Scandirito's Law refers to a higher likelihood that journalists will appeal rhetorically to the biases of specific political orientations during significant social events by comparing their ideological opponents' approaches to those of the Cultural Revolution.

This article strongly reflects Scandirito's Law since the author is drawing serious comparisons between people using hashtags on Twitter and the assassins of the Cultural Revolution.

Shandrea

Shandrea seems shy and quiet at first, but once you get to know her, she is very energetic and fun to be around. She is a very unique and creative person. She is very intelligent, but also stubborn and she can carry an attitude. Shes very down-to-earth, but can be a little confused when it comes to what she wants in life. She has a sort of swelling beauty about her and a golden heart and finding love is a challenge.
Shandrea is gorgeous and very smart

Shandi

Shandi's have very big guarded hearts. They take a minute to open up but if you are lucky enough to see them do it, you are a very lucky person. They are the best people you can meet. No matter what they are there for you. They are so funny and beautiful.. Being around a Shandi makes you want to be a better person.

They are amazing big sisters and if you don't have a Shandi as a big sister.. Prolly adopt one. They will never let anything happen to you and will always be there for you. You never know a love so strong as you do when you are love by a Shandi sister.

Do NOT make a Shandi mad.. The temper they have is like something not of this world! Godzilla runs!!! Short fuses and the bite is bigger than her bark!
