Murphy's Law of Spares
"If you buy just one of something, you will surely break it almost immediately, but if you buy one or more "spare" items to have "just in case", your "initial" item will miraculously escape damage no matter how many mishaps you endure, and thus those duplicate items will merely gather dust in the garage or at the back of your desk-drawer."
I have always tried to handle objects gently and carefully, but due to extreme forgetfulness and physical/mental/emotional infirmities, I tend to "be rough on my stuff" --- sitting/stepping on unobserved items, blundering into objects as I'm groggily stumbling to the bathroom in the middle of the night, soiling items or spilling/dropping stuff, etc., and so I occasionally attempt to "prepare for the future" by acquiring spares of the types of items which I typically seem to damage or break; only prob is that just as soon as I do "lay in for a rainy day" like that, the "currently-being-used" object that I had been procuring said spares for NEVER SEEMS TO ACTUALLY SUSTAIN SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE, and so all of those extras that I'd carefully tucked away just "sit there for decades"... talk about a classic case of "Murphy's Law of Spares"!

sparks in the dark
When you chew up a pack of Wintergreen Lifesavers candy in a dark room whilst looking in a mirror, it makes Green Sparks!
When I first heard of sparks in the dark I just had to try it! What an amazing phenomenum! The green sparks were so beautiful!

Internet Spaceships
An Eve-Online related term.
A reminder to not get too worked up about the game.
It goes along with the game "chase the ball": AKA soccer.
Soccer can be a serious sport. But when you put a bunch of 3 year-olds on the field, the parents of said 3 year-olds often need reminding of what those kids are really playing.
Even when dealing with profession levels, it is still just a game of "chase the ball". Maybe if people used that term more often there would be less violence and rioting in connection with the sport.
The term "internet spaceships" serves as a simple reality check, that this is only a game, and people should not be building their lives entirely around something so trivial.

Someone said "internet spaceships are more important than life and death to you" and I said "Listen, it's more important than that"
