Law of Inverse Favoritism

The Law of Inverse Favoritism refers to the tendency of fanfiction authors to make their FAVORITE characters suffer the most, either INSTEAD of the ones they hate, or ALONGSIDE the ones they hate. For example, if you were a huge Sonic fan, and Tails was your favorite character, he would tend to go through the most serious shit in any stories you wrote, maybe he'd lose one of his tails, maybe he'd die, maybe he'd lose someone who meant a lot to him (Like Sonic himself).

This law does not always apply, however, and some authors may like certain characters TOO much to make them eligible for this, as if there's a sort of uncanny valley where, right before the character means the most to you out of any, ones short of that standard suffer, but the ones shorter or ahead of the valley do not.
This seems to often be determined by how innocent or pure the character is. The moreso they are, the more likely they'll be excluded. For example, I often write Animaniacs fanfics, and Wakko never gets hurt as badly as anyone else, so he would probably be an exception for the Law of Inverse Favoritism.
Alice: You know how people who write fanfics often tend to torture their FAVORITE characters, and not the ones they HATE?

Bob: Yeah, I'm often guilty of that myself. I know how that works.

Alice: Well, you're one of my favorites to write in my stories now, so get ready for hell. That doesn't bother you at all, does it?

Bob: I t 's v e n g e a n c e f o r a l l I ' v e w r i t t e n

Alice: I also came up with a name for that. I'll call it "The Law of Inverse Favoritism".

Bob: Accurate.

Lee Law

The Lee Law describes the natural phenomenon whereby the quality of a game is inversely proportional to level of enthusiasm and excitement displayed by Mr Lee.
Mr Lee: "Yo, you should play: Hypercharged: Unboxed"
Everyone: "This game is shit, Mr Lee, let's play something else, maybe on the Epic Store. I think the Lee Law is in effect here."

Salty's Law of Opposites

When Salty asks you to do something, do the complete opposite.

Godwin's Law

Godwin's Law states that "the longer a heated Internet discussion goes on for, the more likely it is that someone will compare their opponent(s) to Hitler, the Nazis, or Nazi Germany in general."
Anyone who invokes Godwin's Law in an argument is said to automatically lose by default, even if it is perfectly reasonable; because if you resort to comparing your opponent to arguably the most evil dictator in the world obviously implies that A) You know you're wrong, B) You've run out of ideas, and C) You're a sore loser and want to make your opponent look bad, even though it does the exact opposite.

The only (incredibly rare) exception is if the person is legitimately comparable to him (for example, if they are massively racist, especially anti-Semitic, for no discernible reason), but even then it usually still has the same result.

Business-in-law

When a person marries the child of a business owner only to “get into” the business that the parent owns. A great way to land a good job without a lot of effort or work.
Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI):
“If I marry that woman, her dad owns a big business! Nothing makes a woman more attractive than daddy’s big bank-roll. I need to hit that to guarantee I never have to work hard in my life!”

Ron Johnson is a product of a business-in-law marriage.
