Barnum’s Law

A terrible thing happens when you don’t promote: nothing.

Source: Anonymous copywriter for WDVA radio in Virginia, 1975, appearing in an ad in The Danville Register

Misattributed to P.T. Barnum c. 1999
Barnum’s Law dictates that having an elevator pitch ready in case the CEO asks you what your function is could be a matter of keeping your job.

Its Law

A better way of saying "it's the law" but removing the "it" because it's unnecessary. Also an alternate form of stating the facts without having to explain yourself. "It is what it is, stop trying to find a reason" kind of vibe
*Ally is rocking her new channel bag for a day at work at the morgue (cause she is a doctor) and one of her classmates approaches her about her bag*

person: "your bag shouldn't be in here, its like not the place for that"

Ally: "mm, yes I can, its law. What you cant do is mind my business, and that's law too"
