Barlow's Law

A philosophical theory proposed by philosopher Patrick D. Barlow in 2016:
"If you can talk about it, you can joke about it."
For example: women, mongoloids, and everything in-between is okay to joke about unless you choose to ignore them completely... which in that case just makes you a politically correct douche-rocket.
Alex: "You can't say that the UNICEF kids would make great Xylophones after they die of malnutrition."
Ben: "Barlow's Law says otherwise."
