The school of entertainment which values style over content to the point of a fault. Epitomizes the saying, "sell the sizzle, not the steak."
Often allows a character or characters to perform egregious violations of physics, social moorings, or general reality with few negative consequences as long as said character(s) looks good while doing so. Always involves an inordinate amount of special effects. Characteristically produces attempts at entertainment which are highly dependent on the audience's emotions but independent of its cerebral abilities.

Applying the Bruckheimer Principle to his situation, the hero was able to make a ramp out of a nearby flatbed tow-truck, get his vehicle over 90mph, and jump over the huge line of traffic (and the accident that caused it) to safety.
A nuclear warhead, with the Bruckheimer Principle carefully applied, can break an asteroid the size of Texas in half.

Get the Principal mug.The new principal of South Park Elementary who is in his 20s, believes that Caitlyn Jenner is the most courageous person alive, that all immigrants here are not illegal immigrants but undocumented immigrants. His views and youth make him likely to beat up a student for calling something the wrong thing as he is part of the fraternity PCA and is politically correct.
His main opponent in South Park is Mr. Garrison who quit his job as teacher to run for presidency.

Get the PC Principal mug.A completely useless class that was created basically so that the College Board can earn an extra buck. The class has not been accepted by any popular colleges or universities currently, as the class is completely based off of logic puzzles and nothing useful. AP Computer Science Principles does not have any learning base within it, since literally all of the practice questions can be answered by someone with no coding experience whatsoever. Basically, if you want a completely unenriching, free, and pointless hour tacked on to your schedule, then sign up for this class.

Get the AP Computer Science Principles mug.The much maligned practice of printing eleventy billion pages in a busy computer lab and then leaving them unattended on a laser printer's paper tray for long periods of time. Absentee printers often confuse and annoy their fellow computer lab patrons as their excessive printing quickly buries the print jobs of other lab patrons.
This practice often forces harried college students to waste precious time sifting through dozens of pages of random senior theses, flyers, newsletters, and other miscellaneous crap in order to find their term papers, tragically thwarting last minute attempts to finish and print homework 5 minutes before class starts.
Chronic absentee printers often sit blissfully at their computers browsing Facebook for extremely long periods of time before retrieving their documents.
Absentee printing is endemic to college computer labs the world over.

Bob stormed in late to his philosopy class because his essay got caught up in the fray of absentee printing.
Jane stood hovering over the printer for five minutes as he waited for the 100 page print job of an anonymous absentee printer to hopelessly spew out of the printer.
