Noun (physics terminology): the natural sequential relation between any cause and its subsequent effect in the known universe, in which any effect is invariably preceded by the cause of that effect, and never the reverse.

Get the causality mug.A legend in Counter-Strike: Source, known for beating the odds while in a 12 on 12 tournament. He was the last one left against 11 enemies, and he ended up finishing them all off by himself with a Glock Pistol.

Get the Causality mug.The act of pooping so hard that you become immediately hungry and then the proceeding feast only leads to yet another poop. A vicious cycle. Particularly when you can no longer remember if the loop was started by a poop or a meal, at this point you know you have entered a temporal causality poop.
Dude I found the best 24-hour all-you-can-eat Buffet in Vegas with really nice toilets inside. I totally forced myself into a temporal causality poop. I was there for days!

Get the temporal causality poop mug.A woman who is physically "inflated" from the usage of birth control. Unfortunately all of the negative symptoms (weight gain, larger breasts, blood clots, etc) have affected her, unlike some women who may not experience some or all the symptoms. The woman will appear chubbier or fatter than ever with a round or apple-shaped figure, her breasts are plump but sagging from tenderness, and she has a muffin top; however, on the bright side, her skin is radiantly clear.
A birth control causality can also be a woman who smoked and took birth control or did not take her birth control properly and ended up pregnant.
Poor things.

Eva was mad after taking birth control for two years. She is shaped like a pear, her love handles seem to flop over her pants, her arms are flabby and her boobs seem to scrape the floor. However, her acne has disappeared. Poor girl is a Birth Control Causality . Oh well, once again at least her skin's cleared up.

Get the Birth Control Causality mug.The phenomenon where in people that are geographically separated experience a coincidence with no other possible explanation, that would not have happened otherwise.
You pick up the phone to dial your sister, and she is already on the line without dialing, or the phone ringing, as she has already called you.
But you know that if you did not go to call her, she would not have tried to call you - synchronicit causality
It was the act of picking up the phone that precipitated the event.

Get the synchronicit causality mug.A hypothetical framework proposing that faster-than-light (FTL) travel does not necessarily imply time travel or causality violation. Contrary to conventional physics (where FTL equals time travel via relativity), Preserved Causality Theory suggests that causality is more fundamental than light speed limits—that there's a deeper structure ensuring causes precede effects regardless of velocity. This could involve privileged reference frames, quantum non-locality extended to macroscopic scales, or novel spacetime geometry that allows FTL without temporal paradoxes. The theory opens the door to interstellar travel while keeping grandma safe from accidental erasure. It's the dream of every sci-fi fan who wants warp drive without the headache of meeting your own grandfather.
"But Einstein said FTL equals time travel!" they protested. "Preserved Causality Theory," the warp drive engineer replied, "suggests Einstein was right about light but wrong about causality being tied to it. We're going to Alpha Centauri in a week, and we'll be back before we left—no, wait, we'll be back after we left. Causality preserved. Probably." The theory remains unproven, but so does faster-than-light travel itself."

Get the Preserved Causality Theory mug.A framework proposing that causality is fundamental and conserved—that even in extreme conditions (FTL travel, time dilation, quantum weirdness), cause-effect relationships are preserved. Preserved Causality suggests that causality isn't just a feature of our spacetime but a conserved quantity, like energy or momentum. You can stretch it, bend it, maybe even warp it—but you cannot break it. FTL doesn't mean time travel; it means we don't yet understand how causality is preserved at those speeds.
"They said FTL means time travel—therefore impossible. Preserved Causality Theory says: maybe causality is conserved, like energy. We don't know how FTL preserves it, but that doesn't mean it can't. The theory buys time for engineers: causality isn't fragile; it's fundamental."
