Rule of Roelofs

When an action does not take effect during a potential period of time, it is rolled off to the next more optimal window of opportunity. This is not a function of statistical probability, it is simply the way things are and cannot be explained by logic or mathematical analysis; it just happens that way.
That smarty pants tried to explain with a rationale of probability that day shift didn’t receive a call, and that this had zero impact on night shift getting call. You would think he had heard of the Rule of Roelofs. Apparently not.

Creep Rule

The creep rule is used to make sure sure you don't date someone who is too far below your age. The creep rule is simple. In order to calculate how far below your age you can date you need to use the following method. Take your age, divide it by 2 and then add 7.

Eg. If you are 24 divide your age by 2 (which is 12) then add 7 (which makes 19), If you are 24 then you can date someone who is the minimum age of 19. If you date someone younger than that YOU'RE A CREEP, hence the name "Creep Rule." In order for this formula to work, you must calculate it using the age of the person who is older in the scenario.
Dude, you're 45 and dating a 20 year-old? You're a creep!!!! Creep rule is half-your age + 7. You should date my cousin instead, she's 30.
