Ted:
Look, all I'm saying is that Boston women are, on the whole, a paler, uglier sort than women from the elsewheres of life.
John:
That's bullshit. What about Lori? She's hot.
Ted:
No, Lori's from Pennsylvania. That's not a Boston girl.
John:
They're not that bad.
Ted:
See, the fact that you have to say "they're not that bad" means that they are that bad.
Guy watching the movie: So that’s where Ted’s Law comes from!

The log laws were a series of regulations passed by the British Parliament during the 1900s to restrict population growth and prevent famine. The log laws stated that under any circumstances, no man residing within the British Empire should impregnate a woman with said man's "log" more than once within the span of 57 fortnights, or 798 days. The log laws also stated that any man who violated these laws would be punished, and his punishment would be up to the discretion of his governor.
The governor has requested that any man found violating the log laws be beheaded in the town square.
