Perkinstein Principle

When an authority figure gives clear instructions to a group of people, multiple times in some cases, but most or all of the group fails to follow the instructions given in any way, potentially causing the authority figure to dwell into madness.

Teacher 1: Man, I told my students to draw 4 lines, but most of them drew 5, and some didn’t even draw lines!
Teacher 2: Ah the Perkinstein Principle, don't you go mad now.

Babysitter Principle

When criminally corrupt fascists are in charge of America

Donald Trump aka Casino Mobster hired numerous corrupt associates like Whiskey Pete Hegseth and "Not You" Tulsi Gabbard and Pam Bondi (currently stinking up government and committing felonies by the hour) who are acting like ornery toddlers whose babysitter is passed out drunk in the laundry room while kids in her charge are setting fire to the house. in other words, the Babysitter Principle means criminals are running the show and have absolutely no supervision over their malfeasance.

Diaper Principle

The Diaper Principle is like a “poo-tastic” metaphor for how some workplaces handle mistakes. 🩴💩 It’s when management, in response to one person’s blunder, makes everyone wear a metaphorical diaper to prevent future mishaps. In other words, instead of dealing with the real issue, they make everyone suffer the consequences of one person’s mess!

Guess what? Karen spilled coffee on her keyboard, and now we all have to attend a ‘how not to spill coffee’ workshop!”
Employee 2: “OMG, that’s the Diaper Principle in full swing! Can’t believe they’re diapering us for Karen’s coffee catastrophe!

Yeah, that's the Chelsea Principle for ya.
