Dylan’s Law 

Any gathering amongst a group of friends will inevitably lead to somebody mentioning that one friend who you never talk to anymore, but was so ridiculous you still have to talk about - similar to Godwin’s law. A scheckel is charged to the one who says it.
“I think the Uber is a silver Prius” “haha remember when Dorfman tried to claim his Prius was a sports car?” “Boom, Dylan’s law strikes again. And yea he was so dumb.”

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.
