Stephenson's Law

The tendency of a party to copy-and-paste a set of rules relating to an area of knowledge one has a limited understanding of into an agreement, especially when this action is done after a particularly brief google search of the knowledge area.

The term is may have originated among neck-bearded keyboard-commando's, but its precise history is unclear.

"Why do you think they put those terms into the contract?"

"Oh, I dunno. Stephenson's Law I guess."

Stevenson’s law

Stevenson’s law, based off of Noelle Stevenson, writer of She-ra. She has said to assume all of the characters are queer/lgbtq in some way shape or form instead of the opposite which is usually true, for other shows at least, it has become a meme quickly in queer cartoon communities.

Person one: my head canon is that Gus from the owl house is ace

Person two: hell yeah! Stevenson’s law man!!
