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!

Law Bro

Law Bro: Inclusive of all genders, a law bro is someone who believes that the pursuit of their education (J.D.) intrinsically makes them more valuable than the other. A law bro allows the pursuit of power and money to cloud their judgment regarding non-absolutes and compromise. A law bro doesn't realize that their education isn't the only nor most important agenda. Law bros, to reduce their suffering, must learn to alleviate their egos, self-righteousness, and ideal that they are superior and embrace an ethic of care, knowledge, and mastery for mastery's sake.
Law bro, "I can't believe I got an A- in Con Law after studying for 80 hours last week. Doesn't my professor realize I'm better?"

Enlightened law bro, "shut the fuck up and stop being toxic."

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.

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?

Sitch's Law

Most arguments are arguments about definitions, you just don't realize it.
Person 1: "One of the big problems with the Socialism VS Capitalism debate is that it almost always-like so many other debates; it devolves into debates over definitions. It’s tedious and unproductive, but it seems unavoidable at the same time."

Person 2: "Sitch's Law in action."

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.

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
