Bravo's Law

Bravo's Law is an internet rule which states: Any clearly stated opinion will be willfully misinterpreted by at least one person on the internet.

This originated from a viral tweet by @BravoCoolee, who complained that you could claim that you loved pancakes and then be accused of hating waffles, which is not implied by that statement.

"All I said was 'I love pancakes' and then people were accusing me of hating waffles! Bravo's Law will get you every time, man."

Fox's law

Like godwin's law but pertaining to biscuits - a favourite conversation topic amongst brits on Internet forums - especially once a thread has served its purpose or the original poster has made things awkward, someone (usually sarcastic) will eventually mention biscuits to diffuse and/or derail the thread.

Some squid asked a question on the motorbike forum about cleaning his carburetor - we pointed out that his 2019 lexmoto is electronically injected, he got angry. Next post was a question about whether you should dunk a custard cream or not. Fox's law.
