Aerith-Hinawa Principle

The Aerith-Hinawa Principle states that in a video game where you’re allowed to pick names for your characters, you should never name them after your loved ones. Named after two of the most traumatizing character deaths in video game history: Aerith from Final Fantasy VII, and Hinawa from Mother 3. A lot of people named these two after people they loved, and it only made their deaths that much worse.

Lucas: For my first Nuzlocke run, I’m naming all of my Pokémon after my closest friends!

Cloud: Please reconsider. I take it you’re unfamiliar with the Aerith-Hinawa Principle?

The Real Peter Principle

Actually the "Law of Diminishing Return" renamed to reflect the social mores and cerebral content of its enforcers.

I could tell by that appointment to the seat I had kept so warm that The Real Peter Principle had been applied.

The Franchise-Principle

When a song sucks the first time you listen to it but after listening more often it turns out to be actually fire.
Just like the Song FRANCHISE by Travis Scott.

The song „...“ is a perfect example for The Franchise-Principle.

viking principles

Principles in which to live your life like a Nordic badass.

Looking both ways before crossing the street go against my Viking principles. Especially when there is village to rape and pillage on the other side.

Shirky Principle

The principle in which institutions, or any organization, will try to preserve the problem to which they are supposed to be the solution.

(In reference to Author Clay Shirky (born 1964), an American writer, consultant and teacher on the social and economic effects of Internet technologies and journalism.)

The IRS is a Shirky Principle organization. It will never attempt to totally get rid of tax evasion, even if it could, because the IRS needs to be maintained for reasons to find tax evasion.
