Daughtery Principle

The Daughtery Principle, named after American football coach Duffy Daughtery (1915-1987) of Michigan State University, states that: “A tie is like kissing your sister.” While both evolutionary psychology theory and sociological theory would predict that this familial phenomenon would lead to osculatory outcome dissatisfaction, it has not been systematically tested except possibly in West Virginia and Vermont.
Football, basketball. and basketball have such a horror of the Daughtery Principle being enacted that play continues through overtime or extra innings until the tie is broken.

Principle of Least Interest

In a two-party relationship, the party exhibiting the least interest in the relationship holds the most power. This is due to the (albeit often false) presumption that relationships are an efficient economy, and that one party would only be more interested if the other is inherently more valuable.
Johnny wanted to send Daphne flowers after their first date, but since he asked her out in the first place, the Principle of Least Interest dictates he will be more likely to score with Daphne in the long run by waiting for her to make the next move.

Roger Rabbit Principle

It is ok as long as it is also funny. From the scene in which Roger Rabbit escapes from handcuffs:

Eddie Valiant: You mean you could've taken your hand out of that cuff at any time?
Roger Rabbit: No, not at any time, only when it was funny.
"Wow, what you just did was incredibly offensive."

"That's OK, because it was also funny. You know, the Roger Rabbit Principle..."

princing

Verb: To spontaneously start singing the theme to the Fresh Prince of Bel Air. It generally occurs in a large groups, but it can still happen to an individual. Usually, most people in the area stop what they are doing to join in.
So, I was with all of my friends and we just started Princing. It was awesome.

Ex:
Bob: Hey, wanna hear a story?
Joe: Ok.
Bob: So, I was shooting some--
Joe (joined in by Bob later): b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys who were up in no good
Started making trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
And said "you're moving with your auntie and uncle in bel-air"

I begged and pleaded with her the other day
But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way

She gave me a kiss and she gave me my ticket
I put my walkman on and said "I might as well kick it!"

First class, yo this is bad,
Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass
Is this what the people of bel-air livin' like?
Hmm this might be alright!

I whistled for a cab and when it came near the
License plate said "fresh" and had a dice in the mirror!
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought naw forget it, yo home to bel-air

I pulled up to a house about seven or eight
And I yelled to the cabby "yo, homes smell you later"
Looked at my kingdom I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the prince of bel-air!
