Boston’s Law 

Derived from Godwin’s Law, Boston’s Law states that as an online argument with a Patriots fan grows longer and more heated, it becomes increasingly likely that they will bring up the fact that they have won five Superbowls.
Person: “Bro, I bet the Raiders smoke y’all this year."

Patriots Fan: “Fuck you, let me know when you have 5 Superbowl rings, I masturbate to Tom Brady, but use my left hand because my right is full on rings.”

Person: “Damn dude, I guess that’s why they call it Boston’s Law

Tay's Law 

The tendency for Learning Algorithms or A.I. to become racist as more information about BIPOC is encountered. The name is derived from the Twitter BOT Tay whos' learning algorithm was introduced to wrongthink by the hacker known as four chan.
It has been brought to our attention that the A.I. has used some derogatory terms and offensive images. This was a consequence of the automated data collection procedure that, when encountering BIPOC, lead to the phenomenon of Tay's Law.

Merritt's Law

An extension of Godwin’s Law, Merritt’s Law states that as an online argument grows longer and more heated, it becomes increasingly likely that a participant will stop discussing things and just throw up a series of “memes” (see below). When such an event occurs, the person guilty of running afoul of Merritt's Law has effectively forfeited the argument.

Properly used, the term “meme” refers broadly to “an idea, behavior, style, or usage that spreads from one person to another in a culture” but as used above, the term “meme” refers to an image with words typed onto it spread via social media. The words are not searchable and, as it turns out, when the words are intended to be a quote, it very frequently turns out to be a misquote.
You started using memes instead of words so, according to Merritt's Law, you lost!
