Occam's Jigger, not to be confused with Occam's Razor, is a theoretical model that describes the phenomena in which no matter how large a given bar is or how many bartenders are working behind that bar, they all tend to randomly migrate to the same space at the same time. It can not be represented mathematically using the following basic formulas for fluid dynamics:

dx/dt=delta*(y-x)
dy/dt=r*x-y-x*z
dz/dt=x*y-b*z

However, it can be compared to Chaos Theory.
