porch factor

The increased or decreased number of residents sitting out side or on their homes porch in the evening hours on warm temped nights, to indicate a correlation of higher or lower level of criminal activity based on the theory that the more people present in a given area and the increase of warmer weather, also the chances for interaction with others increased thus the possibility of criminal activity or accidental injury, increases.

I believe there will be a lot of people getting injured tonight because it looks like the Porch Factor is up.

BoJo factor

In politics, where to be caught in a lie is not necessarily harmful to one’s career. Generally requires prejudice, frustration and credulousness on the part of the population, a shallow talent pool and a helpful media.

Like Goneril and Regan competing to offer false compliments to Lear, they used the BoJo factor to cover the leader they had doomed with hypocritical praise
The BoJo factor was clearly at work when he was given the post of Foreign Secretary, much to the amazement of the rest of the world

prick factor

The motivating factor that drives men to do or not do something that they secretly abhor or dread. Failing to perform this duty will make you a prick, and the fallout will be worse than the actual sacrifice.

I was up against the prick factor, so I went ahead and took her to see "Sex and the City" even though it made me want to puke.
