Haunted cities principle

The principle advanced by some parapsychologist that there are thousands of ghost that haunt the world's large cities because that is where the most people live and when they die some of them become earthbound and haunt the cities. And over the years those cities acumulate more and more ghost Also many ghost like to be around where there are a lot of people because they like the energy that comes off them and they can use that energy to remain earthbound.
So when you see a person on a street corner in a large city it is probably just another person but there is a chance it is not.

Ambystoma- Homo Sapien Blood Principle

The Ambystoma- Homo Sapien Blood Principle is a proven law that states that the blood of a salamander can be placed inside of a human with no bad consequences. In fact over 300 Cambodians have 100% of their blood deriving from local salamanders. This new advance in medical technology is a promise for a bright future.
Thanks to the Ambystoma- Homo Sapien Blood Principle, we can use salamander blood to help sustain humans.

Scientific Principle

Scientific principles are general rules that are followed while doing science or rules that nature tends to follow.
Scientific Principle Examples
The Principle of Least Time a.k.a. Fermat's Principle which states that "light travels between two given points along the path of shortest time."

The principle of cause and effect which states that in order for something to happen there must be an underlying cause or is contingent.

Archimedes Principle: the buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by that object

Examples where principles guide peoples actions would be: making sure all your hypotheses are testable and falsifiable (as opposed to unfalsifiable claims, see Russell's Teapot)

Principled Petty

When someone acts like they're doing something out of a principle or high-minded belief, but it's really just a rationalization for being petty. Usually the excuse will involve a concept like rights, laws, economics, or justice. The term is frequently used on Am I The Asshole Podcast.
"I don't tip. Why should consumers pay for a business' labor costs?"
"You sure you're not just a principled petty a-hole?"

"Mike said he didn't invite Jenny to his party because it's his right."
"He's just being principled petty - obviously this is about Jenny calling him out for stealing $20."
