domenech effect

The situation where a group or organisation succeeds despite, rather than because of management. A group of experienced and motivated employees overcome the handicap of having an incompetent boob running the show. The employees get together and work out how to sort shit out without, or sometimes against, directions from said incompetent management. Named after the hapless manager of the French national team at the world cup in 2006.

Daragh: Who's running the department now?
Stevie: Your not going to believe it, it's Pat!

Stevie: Nah, we have a full domenech effect running, the boss just sits in his office playing with his executive toys!

Malone's Law

This is a corollary of Godwin's Law which states that if an online discussion about rock music goes on long enough, sooner or later someone will compare some band or performer or a situation to Roger Waters, Peter Gilmoure and Nick Mason and the acrimonious breakup of Pink Floyd, the point at which effectively the discussion or thread often ends.

Ian "Panic! at the Disco are now just Brendon Urie's solo project."
Shane "Just like Pink Floyd after Roger Waters left, it was nothing but David Gilmour's ego trip."
Ian "Malone's Law! this conversation is OVER!"
