Larry's Law

Named after the user VirtualLarry from the Anandtech message boards, this law defines that any internet discussion regarding GPUs or Videocards, given sufficient time, will devolve into an argument about GPU mining for cryptocurrency.

I was trying to talk about the price and performance of the 6600XT, but you guys had to Larry's Law this topic and argue over hashrates and how everything is overpriced because of mining.

Larry's Law

All internet discussions regarding video cards or GPUs, given enough time, will decay into a discussion regarding digital currency mining.

Term comes from the user VirtualLarry at the Anandtech GPU forums, and ardent defender of mining digital currency using GPUs. GPU topics involving VirtualLarry would all invariably invite or devolve into discussions about digital currency mining.

"I know this topic is about the performance of the 6600XT, but I have to say that given the cards are out of stock due to miners buying them all up..."

"Ah man, this topic got Larry's Lawed!"

Lawry's Seasoned Salt

Lawry's seasoned salt is a blend of salt, spices, and herbs that is commonly used as a seasoning for meat, poultry, seafood, and vegetables.

It was created in 1938 by Lawrence Frank, the founder of Lawry's restaurant chain, as a signature seasoning for the prime rib served in his restaurants.

The seasoning blend typically includes salt, sugar, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and other spices, and is known for its distinctive flavor and ability to enhance the taste of a variety of dishes.

Lawry's seasoned salt is now widely available in grocery stores and is used in home cooking as well as in restaurants.

Lawry's Seasoned Salt is the greatest thing to ever happen to food since 1938!

Toe Rag

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.

1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.

Eternity leave

When some resigns or retires from a job, they are on "eternity leave". This can also refer to someone who has passed away, especially someone who worked somewhere for a long time, retired/resigned, then passed away later.

Oh I'm sorry, you didn't know that Kelly is on eternity leave? She resigned and moved to Hawaii!

With regrets I would like to inform you that my boss is officially on eternity leave. I will never see or hear them again. Ever.
