The term was coined by Gaming Steve Message Board member Logan Felipe in a thread discussing evolution*. The law is named after "the State of Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes", a court case that provides a well documented, real world example of the law in action. The law's creation was also partially inspired by Godwin's Law.

The Scopes Law states: "When discussing evolution in the presence of a creationist, the discussion always becomes a religious debate".

Get the The Scopes Law mug.A practical joke in which a person defacates into someones sink or tub, then hides the feces under a thick layer of shaving cream foam. The victim later rinses, or attempts to wipe away what they believe to be a pile of shaving cream, only to discover the suprise turd underneath.
I woke up after a sick party at my house and found a huge pile of shaving cream in my shower. When i turned the shower on and rinsed away the shaving cream there was a pile of sh*t underneath. I was totally Singapore Ski-Sloped!
