Harding's Law

The tendency to notice mistakes shortly after a resource is made public. Characterized by a direct correlation between the impact of the mistake and the size of the audience. Variant of Murphy's Law.
"Oh no! I didn't catch that typo until after I hit the 'Publish' button! Harding's Law, huh?"

"Why is it so reliable that I see an error in a file 30 seconds after I send it out? Must be Harding's Law at work."

NORUB’S LAW

Norub’s law consists of the processes of using the Mitositive property, the PPASS process, PEPA’S process and R.E.C.U.M.B.O.B. Scientist Zandithominus from the SSMU was listening to the song "How I'm made" from the popular hit tv series Make It Pop. One of the solutions to an element in the music video was SUN + HI = SUPEr GeNiUS. His friend Mathematician Mehrethaxious decided to take this interesting research to their basement that is filled with intelligent Albino Rats. After years and years of work, they finally came up with a solution to SUN + HI = SUPEr GeNiUS called (Enc)h(ant)ed. Together Zandithominus & Mehrethaxious presented their research to physicist Forforumtholomnious and they were impressed and wanted to continue working with them to now form what we know today as the Norub’s laws. To continue studying this research they created a laboratory called“The ZMF institute” where they would be able to study other chemicals and observe how combinations of elements can create new creatures.
Zandithominus: Solve the equation (Enc)h(ant)ed.
Forforumtholomnious: The solution would be Eh nh ch ha hn ht ae ad ne nd te td.
Zandithominus: Nooo you have to use Norub’s Law to solve the equation.
Mehrethaxious: Well using the Mistositive property the answer would actually be 82,944.
Forforumtholomnious: Wow I’m impressed, how did you solve that?
Mehrethaxious: Well it’s just a formula that me and my albino rats have gathered through research *Scoffs*

Law of Shen

Every traffic light must be red.
Every luck event must fail.
Every plan will be ruined.
Everything will go wrong.
(however, purely skill based events are excluded)
On the way to an amusement park, get stuck in traffic for over an hour, arrive at the park and wait in line to find the coaster is broken. Four times. Then lock belongings in locker and have a town-wide power outage.

tonnage law

"The vessel, or vehicle with the greatest gross tonnage has the right of way."

Based in part on the navigation rule about ships restricted in ability to maneuver and how other ships need to stay away. And the reality of if there is a collision between two or more vehicles the smaller vehicles will take more damage than the larger vehicles. And that greater amount of damage is shared with the occupants of the smaller vehicle.
Smart car v. F-350 crew cab pickup. Pickup driver is shook up and possibly bruised from the airbag, they can walk away. Smart car driver is in the ambulance on the way to the hospital with multiple fractures and or internal injuries. Moral of the story, violating the tonnage law will end up in pain & suffering. Even though you may have the right to be where you are, the right will not protect you from harm.

Holmberg's Law

A subcategory of Murphy's Law that states: When interacting with a group of individuals, circumstances will unfold such that a sufferer of Holmberg's Law is never paired with attractive members of the opposite sex.
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.

Malone's Law

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!"
