Phoenix Wright

To do a Phoenix Wright is to turn something around; mainly in an argument.
Me: So, did you have a go at him for stealing your girlfriend?
Callum: Yeah, but he "Phoenix Wright"ed me, and now I'm the bad guy.

Me: I was getting whinged at by my parents the other day, but I did a Phoenix Wright. As a result, they apologised and gave me a tenner.

writings on the wall

When something becomes made clear, usually something bad. Signifys specifically figuring something out by reading between the lines of the situation. A realization that - once made - would be foolish to ignore.
After that last financial meeting I can twll that the writings on the wall that they were going bankrupt. So I chose to find a new job as soon as I could.

The r/writing subreddit Principle

The r/writing subreddit Principle states that if your question starts with the words "Is it ok" or something similar to that then the answer is invariably yes.
"Hello, r/writing. Can I use a particular gimmick or a plot device that has been used before but because I don't actually read books or do any research I just assume it to be a highly original idea?"

"According to the r/writing subreddit Principle, the answer is always yes. You can write whatever you want."

"But is it ok if, like, my main character dies in the end? I'm afraid the average reader will be put off by my creative genius."

"Yes! Stop asking other people for validation! Grow a backbone and write what you want!"
