Co Worker: So then how did you wind up 10 minutes late today?

Me: I left 10 minutes later than i normally would courtesy of my cat- but the accident on I-95 is what really screwed me.

Co Worker: Lathrop's Law my friend, you plan, fate laughs.

LaCroix's Law

the internet poster Teabagger just invoked LaCroix's Law by posting that internet poster Joe SixPack is a moron and therefore must watch Fox News.

Fruit Law 

First, there's nothing fruity about the Fruit Law.

It's an important principle of ghetto life that explains the certainty of final retribution after you do something stupid to someone scary.

It states: if you diss a MAN-GO, you must diss-a-PEAR.

That is, if you disrespect the wrong people and walk away without making amends, you are liable to vanish in a painful way.

Loosely based on a Vybz Kartel lyric.
Frankie: "Hey yo, heard about Little John lately? Dude owes everybody money"

Marco: "Really? His widow skipped town after his funeral"

Frankie: "Oops! Fruit Law!"
