Murphy's Law of Foul-Weather Gear

"If you 'prepare for the worst' by bringing along extra jackets/gloves, an umbrella, etc., then the skies will be sunny and mild all the time you're 'out 'n' about'. But if you decide to leave all that stuff behind at home and set out on your trip in just your ordinary street-clothes, there'll be a bleepin' MONSOON or HURRICANE!
The morning started out kinda overcast and nippy, so I brought an umbrella, thick hoodie-jacket, and gloves with me when I set out to run some errands around town. Well, naturally, once I got a fair distance from home and thus I didn't wanna traipse all the way back to put everything away again, the sun came out and the day got really warm, and so I was just feverishly lugging all that extra stuff around with me for nothing... classic case of "Murphy's Law of Foul-Weather Gear", I guess.

Lane's Law

Internet adage mandating that "If you comment on my post, you must react to it through the various Facebook 'reaction' options, i.e. 'Like' or 'Frown.'" The idea behind Lane's Law is that if you are contributing to the conversation on a topic, you have an obligation to help boost the post's visibility.

Enforced at will; an idea stemming from the belief that a man's wall is his castle.
The rule is simple. If you comment on my shit, you have to react. Lane's Law.
