Ted’s Law

The law that, in generality and absent mitigating circumstances or context, “the fact that you have to say ‘they’re not that bad’ means that they are that bad.”

First published after extensive research into the sexually available women of Boston, MA in the 2012 Seth MacFarlane film Ted, spoken by the eponymous Ted, whom MacFarlane also voiced.
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!

Ted Cruzing

Leaving when times get tough especially when your power goes out and you have enough money to abandon the people who need you the most.
Woman: Where are you going?

Man: to Cancun till this all blows over

Woman: so you’re Ted Cruzing on me?

Man: Don’t worry I’m just going to drop my wife off for the weekend then stay in Cancun and work remotely from the comfort of my 80 degree hotel room.
