Owen's Law

(noun)

A term similar to "Godwin's Law" is a logical fallacy used by fans of professional wrestling. The use of Owen's Law denotes any wrestling fan who mentions or uses the death of wrestling legend Owen Hart as a way to shift blame towards the WWE rather than offer a rational argument. It is often used when any wrestling promotion outside of the WWE is called out for doing something unsafe or unprofessional. Similar to "Whataboutism"

Fan 1: Did you see that? Looks like he landed on a stack of pillows. You could see the cardboard for crying out loud.
Fan 2: What? Did you want him to land on real concrete?

Fan 1: Huh?! No! I'm just sayin' it looked so phony. They could've easily filmed it from a different angle. It just looked bad.
Fan 2: Don't forget that WWE let Over The Edge go on after Owen Hart died.
Fan 1: What does Owen Hart's death have to do with this?
Fan 2: ...
Fan 1: Stop using Owen's Law and just admit it sucked.

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.

girl grip

The ability girls and women have developed to hold several items at once in one hand. The skill has been developed due to the lack of pockets in women's clothing.

I thought she'd need multiple trips to carry her phone, keys, wallet, and Starbucks to her car since she needed the other hand to open the door, but she used her impressive girl grip to carry everything in one hand.
