Murphy's Law of Spares

"If you buy just one of something, you will surely break it almost immediately, but if you buy one or more "spare" items to have "just in case", your "initial" item will miraculously escape damage no matter how many mishaps you endure, and thus those duplicate items will merely gather dust in the garage or at the back of your desk-drawer."
I have always tried to handle objects gently and carefully, but due to extreme forgetfulness and physical/mental/emotional infirmities, I tend to "be rough on my stuff" --- sitting/stepping on unobserved items, blundering into objects as I'm groggily stumbling to the bathroom in the middle of the night, soiling items or spilling/dropping stuff, etc., and so I occasionally attempt to "prepare for the future" by acquiring spares of the types of items which I typically seem to damage or break; only prob is that just as soon as I do "lay in for a rainy day" like that, the "currently-being-used" object that I had been procuring said spares for NEVER SEEMS TO ACTUALLY SUSTAIN SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE, and so all of those extras that I'd carefully tucked away just "sit there for decades"... talk about a classic case of "Murphy's Law of Spares"!

law of small numbers

The phenology that 2% of a data set can mimic the formalism and specificity of the entire data set.

The postulation that 2% of the data is equal to the counterpart 98%.

The rule of 2.
The law of small numbers argues that 2% of a population can tip an entire election although formalistic mathematics cannot delineate which 2% of the population that is.

Deveyra's Law

"The idea of doing something is always better than the reality of it."

By creating an image of desire in a persons own head, when confront the object of desire in

their reality as opposed to their own head, they're forced to confront its features more realistically.
Wich can cause to a feeling of dissapointment.
ex 1: "- I were at this party and Deveyra's law applied. I should've stayed at home."
ex 2: "- "- Why did i agree on this hikingtrip? It sounded better at the time"
ex 3 "- "Hey you wanna come over?"

"-Sure!"

"- This dude never shutsup.. why did i bring him over?"

Rabbanian's Law of Confusion

Started out as a theory, but over the years has developed into a law: If you can't tell, it's always a man.
The bros were walking through the gay parade on Halloween and were overwhelmed by all the tits, when one of them remembered Rabbanian's Law of Confusion. They were all on high alert and realized any pair of those juicy titties could easily be accompanied by a set of dick and balls down low.
