(NOUN) An idiom that's a 21st Century update of the old canard "canaries in a coal mine"; describes the warning signs given when seeing filthy carpeting and other shabby maintenance issues in a law firm, doctor's office, or other such business. Dirty carpets are a warning that the firm might be in financial trouble and could go out of business soon, since they are severely skimping on the basics that a successful firm would never neglect.
Jessica interviewed for a new job at a place whose office set off "dirty carpets in a big law firm" warning bells for her. Sure enough, two months later, that place was out of business.

Imagine you are at sea and sailing along nicely a few miles off the coast of Corsica. You have the Genoa poled out and are running downwind. You are single handed. You pop down below to make yourself a cup of tea. Everything is fine. All of a sudden the wind shifts and you gybe. The pole slams across the forestay bent; the genoa is backed and the pole is trapped under the sail. As the boat lurches you are scolded with coffee. You rush on deck to sea the wind picking up and the boat floundering.
You are confident you will soon bring things under control. However, the wind is gusting alarmingly. A squawl from the hills. You cannot get the whisker pole off to furl the sail. You look up and in horror you see a ship coming at you dead ahead. The wind gusts and the boat is knocked down. You slip and land hard on deck bruising your arm.
And so it accumulates as you experience Beare's Law of Accelerating Catastrophe at Sea - BLAC.

Jerry's Law of Forum Matter and Separation states that any forum topic that has past its time (has died) has the small chance to break away from the internet underworld (hence the separation) and re-animate itself in zombie form, becoming stronger in its undead form then it was prior to death. This is limited to dead threads, but is not an occurrence that happens with every zombie thread.
I thought that thread was zombified, but due to Jerry's Law of Forum Matter and Separation, it has come back stronger then ever. Word
