In a competition, there are two clear favorites and then some other garbage. One of the favorites has to take a loss. When this happens, the other competitors cannot be moved ahead of the loser simply because of the loss. See example for correct application of said theory.
Per Colin Cowherd:
I would still rank Alabama and LSU 1 and 2 after this weekend if the game is close. Just because one of these teams has to take a loss doesn’t mean that the other undefeated teams out there are suddenly better. It’s like a beauty contest where there are two clear favorites and another girl has a dead tooth. The results are announced and one hot girl edges the other. Does that mean that you drop the loser below the girl with the DEAD TOOTH?!?!?! NO!!! And Oklahoma State, Boise State, and Oregon all have a dead tooth. It’s the Dead Tooth Theory.

The name derives from an argument between three individuals in which one stated that the general quality of "Bumblebee" and "Glass" cannot be directly compared.

"Bumblebee was so much better than glass."

The theory states that the universe was always the universe and when the universe grows so big it collapses on itself starting the big bang that creates the next universe. This sets the basis for the basic laws of physics e.g. time is relevant. This theory has been proven by Oppenheimer himself and Jordan Kilfoyl.

This is the groundhogs' day of society. As this loop continues we will all infinitely suffer and go towards eternal damnation. At the end of the day, it's all about the friends we made along the way, as it's the only way we can drown out our sorrows and pain. Amogus will always be there, or else u will be square...

Chris: "Hey Darren, the cops are here. What do we do?"
Darren: "Don't worry Chris, just say no homo which will allow us to keep commiting the big gay sex due to the Syrian Loophole Theory"

Dude i finally went to play a game of Dodge ball with Josh.
Oh damn about time! How was it?

It's clear that if anyone took this idea seriously, it would be very dangerous to public health; fortunately, I don't think anyone does. Unfortunately, “Elffy’s duty” is a known fact to a group in Singapore called Ton Complete Group(TCG), occurs only every 2 days of Elffy’s(member of TCG) rota shift duty.
