Catchphrase from the TV series Father Ted. When someone is caught stealing and they insist that the money was just resting in their account.
"Dave, can you give us an update on that guy who was abusing his power of attorney to steal from his grandmother?"
"Yeah, he was arrested and tried to use the Father Ted defence"
"really? how stupid does he think we are?"

Though frequently referred to as simply “Ted”, Tedarico Villalobos was the founder of Circus Design Solutions (CDS), a driving force behind the grassroots pro-speciesist movement. CDS was originally founded as a pet store in Manila, Philippines in 1974. In 1993, CDS reincorporated in mainland California as a space weapons technology engineering subcontractor. Ted’s famous and most popular catchphrase was “CDS, this is Ted.”

To be a Ted Kunt, you must be against shotacon and lolicon, and be a pure advocate of anti-CSA. On the other hand, you must do nothing about it but yell at people about it.

Referring to bicycle mechanics. A guy who thinks he is a pro mechanic because he’s watched a few videos on YouTube. He has more money than brains. He tries to work on his own bike but usually does more harm than good. He then takes said bike to a real mechanic for a real fix and always blames his errors on non-existent manufacturing defects.
Mechanic: What the fuck happened to this wheel?
TBT: I tried truing it, but it just wouldn’t work. Obviously there’s something wrong with it.
Mechanic: It looks like a God Damn Pringle. Jesus you’re a Tool Box Ted.

Ted:
Look, all I'm saying is that Boston women are, on the whole, a paler, uglier sort than women from the elsewheres of life.
John:
That's bullshit. What about Lori? She's hot.
Ted:
No, Lori's from Pennsylvania. That's not a Boston girl.
John:
They're not that bad.
Ted:
See, the fact that you have to say "they're not that bad" means that they are that bad.
Guy watching the movie: So that’s where Ted’s Law comes from!
