A variant of Godwin's Law: As an online discussion of gun owners' rights grows longer, the probability of an ad hominem attack involving penis size approaches 1.
Person 1: I carry a gun to try to keep my family and I safe by exercising a Constitutionally-protected natural right.
Person 2: Hah! You carry a gun because you have a small penis, and you are trying to make up for it!
Person 1: Well, I guess Markley's Law is still true.
Person 2: Hah! You carry a gun because you have a small penis, and you are trying to make up for it!
Person 1: Well, I guess Markley's Law is still true.

"So, did you do anything yesterday evening?"
"Nothing special, went on a double date."
"DOUBLE DATE ALL THE WAY!"

Get the Elwin's Lawmug. The day Martial Law is declared, is the day you wake up and realize that your Constution/bill of Rights/Charter of Rites and Freedoms/etc. is really just about as valuable as that Kleenex you just spunked in... because rites are just privileges, and privileges can be revoked. Your government will do whatever it takes to stay in power, and they got the gunz...
Martial Law can be recognized by the increased presence of men with plexiglass shields and/or sub-machine-guns, a pale green fog that tastes, smells and feels like burning, random acts of hippy clubbing and indiscriminate shooting into crowds.
If your going to "get your loot on" its best to do it during the Preceding state of emergency, because once Martial Law is declared, the party's over. Usually once Martial Law is declared, its best to just stay home, tune into your local state-owned media outlet and do what they say. The punishment for most criminal offenses becomes summary execution, and most of the things you might do out in public become criminal offenses.
Looting = criminal offense = shot on sight
Exercising freedom of speech= criminal offense= disappeared (shot out of sight)
looking like you might be a 'rebel' = criminal offense = a. shot on sight or b. disappeared
On the street after curfew = criminal offense = shot on sight
Looking at the officer the wrong way = criminal offense = shot on sight
If you must go out, try not to wear that 'Rage Against the Machine' tee-shirt, red stars, or clenched-fist logos, as these may attract unwanted bursts of well-aimed fire in your direction.
Remember that meeting you went to back in college? Where the guy at the front was talking about "property is theft" this, and "smash the state" that? Which you attended just so you could meet that cute outspoken Alternachick from your poli-sci class? Well, I hope she put out because thats the reason you have to agents beating on you with a phone book, trying to get a confession out of you... in the washroom of a stadium-turned-detention center. Was she worth it? (tip: just confess, the electrodes are next and a tap to the back of the head hurts less).

Get the Martial lawmug. An epiphany of cognition that supersedes all reason. It is akin to thisness and whatness; is the law actually a law, or just the thought of what a law is? You will only know if it has happened, after it has happened. It requires no translation; no correlations; no other relevancy. It just is.
Anything that only makes sense to the person doing it is Maslin Law. For instance, a person who insists on playing a drinking game by a rule or rules which no one has ever heard of, Maslin Law. You can only witness examples of Maslin Law after it has happened.

Get the Maslin Lawmug. Apparently this term originated from a website called RPG.net and from a user that is now banned, Danth. Danth claimed to have won a forum argument, and someone else later said in that forum that, "If you have to insist that you have won an internet argument, you probably haven't."

This is a corollary of Godwin's Law which states that if an online discussion about rock music goes on long enough, sooner or later someone will compare some band or performer or a situation to Roger Waters, Peter Gilmoure and Nick Mason and the acrimonious breakup of Pink Floyd, the point at which effectively the discussion or thread often ends.
Ian "Panic! at the Disco are now just Brendon Urie's solo project."
Shane "Just like Pink Floyd after Roger Waters left, it was nothing but David Gilmour's ego trip."
Ian "Malone's Law! this conversation is OVER!"

Steven - Man, last night there were six hot ladies and one guy, and I got paired up with the guy.
Dale - That sucks. Holmberg's Law, dude.
