brother-in-lawing

1. Two or more people taking it easy on each other in order to not get hurt or suffer harsh consequences.

2. Most people do not like or care for their brother-in-law, so they are falsely nice to them.
Two teammates are lazily going through football drills.

Coach: Dag nabbit, y'all two quit brother-in-lawing it and hit each other!

Crusty's Law

The comparison of a political figure to a fictional Star Wars character in lieu of making an intelligent observation about them.

See Godwin's Law.
He said Bush and Cheney are like Darth Vader & the Emperor but Obama is like Luke Skywalker.

OK, but why doesn't he form an adult argument about it instead of resorting to Crusty's Law like a little nerd?

Thumper's Law

Named after the rabbit from Disney's Bambi, whose father told him "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." It is way of teaching of keeping derogatory comments to oneself in respect to those who aren't as able as you are to avoid conflict.
Male 1: Man, that a-hole is such a-
Male 2: Hey, remember Thumper's Law man.
Male 1: Fine, don't want any problems anyway.

Gunter's Law

Gunter's Law:
A term that originated on Facebook, Gunter's Law states that as an online argument grows longer and more heated, it becomes increasingly likely that somebody will bring up Donald Trump, the Alt-Right, the KKK, or the Nazis. When such an event occurs, the person guilty of invoking Gunter's Law has effectively won the argument.
"Ironically, Trump will be forced to confiscate all privately-owned guns when he gets sufficiently paranoid about an assassination attempt...just like the Nazis."

Nice job invoking Gunter's Law!

Hewson's Law

As an online discussion about U2 grows longer, the probability of someone pointing out that Bono is a wanker approaches one
User1: Rattle and Hum was the best album ever
User2: That Bono is a complete wanker.
User1: Ahhh I invoke Hewson's Law, I win

Bass Law

As population density increases, the probability of hearing loud bass which you have no control over approaches one.
Guy #1: I can't sleep, man, there's too much bass coming from next door.

Guy #2: Well, we live in high rise flats. If it's not next door it'd probably be the flat upstairs. Bass Law.
