Senior Principle Intern

An individual with excessive years of internship at the same company, without receiving a job offer. Almost always is paid at half rate. Deserves little to no praise for work accomplished.

Those papers from the Senior Principle Intern finally arrived on my desk this morning, they are excessively late and faulty.

Pryde Principle

Pryde Principle: It will get dumber in precisely the way you thought it couldn't

Can you believe Liz Truss was chosen to select Boris Johnson?

First principle

What is that? I don't know what that is... Like a prime directive?...... I'm not a cyborg.

Hym "First Principle: I am better than everyone! Without exception! Second Principle: Children are abominations! Murder them all! Third Principle: Don't talk about fight club... Don't... Uh... Don't do it... Ever... Fourth Principle: I don't know... I don't have one. There's only 3... THE 3 PRINCIPLES OF QUASI-PANDEIST GNOSTICISM! (Don't ask about the fourth one)."

The Dimidium Principle

The belief that you only need half of the proposed time to finish an assignment due to stress from the upcoming deadline.

"Have you started on your essay yet?"
"No"
But it is due in 4 hours, and the description says it takes 5 hours to write!"
"No worries, I'll just follow the Dimidium Principle, and cut it down to 2,5 hours"

pac-man principle

The political principle where whether you go far left or far right, if you go too far in either direction, like Pac-Man, you will end up on the other side which is always a dictatorship.

Hitler was a socialist but moved so far left on government control that, because of the Pac-Man Principle, he came out on the right as a fascist and wound up ultimately as a dictator.
