Rupernomics

A licentious lifestyle, not bound by the concept of time and space. Covertly conducted and discreetly forgiven under the smiling cloak of campness.
Thanks for the offer, but i'd rather not as I've just returned from a last minute trip to Spain where I was supposed to meet a friend for a round of golf but it turned out he was in Mexico. Oh and please send my apologies for the Rupernomics your wife experienced when she turned up at mine with the kids for dinner at my house last night.

Benny Rule

A regulation invoked by a baseball team to automatically win an on-the-field dispute.

Named after Peck League legend Ben Nadado, the Benny Rule originated when the aforementioned Nadado was involved in a home plate collision. Nadado, the catcher, received the throw and applied the tag. The runner adamantly argued that he was safe. Nadado, understandably, argued otherwise. While representatives from both teams began to discuss the call, Nadado (or Benny, as he was affectionately called) removed his catcher's gear and ran off the playing field. His team followed suit and the 'Out' call stood.

And thus, the Benny Rule was born.
Player A: "What the fuck, why did they just run off the field? He was safe!"

Player B: "I know, we just got Benny Rule'd."

Chmiel Rule

A method used mostly on multiple choice tests, quizzes, or worksheets that uses educated guessing based on similarities of the given answers. This is expected to work better than random guessing as the question creator tends to use similar answers to trick and confuse the person answering. This is to be used when you have absolutely no clue how to attempt the problem, or you just don't give a fuck, but still want a better chance to be correct. Named Chmiel Rule after Kevin Chmiel who stabilized this method and found it to be very effective during several multiple choice tests and quizzes. When the correct answer does not follow this method in any manner it is known as a Brinker Complex.
Evaluate the integral of the function (x^2+x+3)/x over boundaries 1 to 8?
a) 40+3ln(7)
b) 38.5+3ln(8)
c) 10+ln(8)
d) 38.5
e) 0

B is the logical guess using Chmiel Rule (and is correct) since there are 3 ln's, 2/3 of those have a 3 in front of them, 2 of the questions have 38.5. B has the most commonalities so guess B (Or learn 2 calculus).

Mooney Rule

A code of secrecy invoked by promising to never tell another person the story you are about to be told.
In a conversation the Mooney Rule would be used as follows:
Person 1: Dude, I have something important to tell you, Mooney Rule on this.
Person 2: Ok, I swear never tell anyone.
Person one then proceeds to tell person two the important story knowing that the secret will stay private between the two due to the Mooney Rule being invoked.

Grassley Rule

1. A precedent for the exclusive use of partisan politics when determining whether a nominee to the Supreme Court should be confirmed.

2. An excuse for those who wish to ignore their responsibilities without facing consequences.

Established by Senator Charles Grassley of Iowa, when as Chair of the Judiciary Committee led the unprecedented obstruction of a nominee to the Supreme Court.
Senators referenced the Grassley rule as justification to oppose the President's nomination to the Supreme Court.

Mom: Timmy, did you do your homework?
Timmy (playing video games): Nah
Mom: Did you take out the trash?

Timmy (still playing games): Nah Mom
Mom: Why not?

Timmy (shrugs): Grassley Rule

Vikaas Rule

The Vikaas rule states that deconstructionism will convert a singularity into a duality; rather than a duality into a singularity.
Existential deconstructionism delineating the body politic into two counter-posing sides is a manifestation of the Vikaas Rule.
