Murphy's Law of Exceptions

"You can follow an 'unpopular' method or procedure 'till da cows come home' and nothing unusual will ever happen to 'justify' or 'vindicate' your unorthodox actions (and you'll likely get continually criticized by others for your chosen behavior), but then the ONE TIME when you eventually 'cave' and actually DO happen to follow the 'standard' or 'acceptable' protocol, THAT'S the solitary 'rogue occasion' when disaster will happen to strike --- something really bad will happen that would not have occurred if you had simply continued to follow your own 'pet' procedure that had seemed better/safer to begin with!"

My "super-long-term-driving-experienced" aunt had gotten fed up with my "back-seat driver" attempts to be helpful by telling her about vehicles that I'd see moving around fairly near our position when we'd be travelling someplace in her car, and so she had eventually asked me to just keep quiet and let here handle the driving herself. Well, of course, within a day or two, Murphy's Law of Exceptions decided to turn and bite me in da butt --- due to a view-obstructing sidewalk-mounted ad-sign, my aunt didn't notice an approaching car, but I did... naturally, that was the ONE TIME that I **didn't** tell her about it because she'd specifically asked me to keep my trap shut on instances like that, and so I'd ASSUMED (there's that word again!) that she'd observed the vehicle bearing down on the intersection. Well, as you might expect, we crashed, and there were multiple injuries in the other car! Can't win...!

Helping the Brother-in-Law

The ultimate excuse used to bail on social commitments, especially when the truth is as plain as the night sky. It's the go-to cover story for ditching your friends, particularly for occasions that require your presence, like a best friend's birthday bash.

A modern-day Cinderella story with a twist: instead of turning into a pumpkin, one mysteriously vanishes to "assist the brother-in-law" and magically ends up in the Land of Nod. Known for its effectiveness in evoking both disbelief and laughter among friends, who are well aware of the impending slumber party for one.

"Dude, did you hear? Gialo pulled a 'Helping the Brother-in-Law at Midnight' on us last night and missed the entire party. We found him snoring on Discord, playing APEX Legends."

Jasper’s law

The law that things that don’t have names and don’t necessarily need names will spawn unnecessary names.

Jasper’s law is a prime example of Jasper’s law.

Juanita's Law

Juanita's Law was first codified in mid-2022, somewhere in Texas.
A triceratops wall adornment was involved.
In a nutshell, Juanita's Law states that - even in the notoriously 'sniffy' world of interior design - one aphorism is indefatigable, across all borders:

Dinosaurs are the fucking tits.

Juanita's Law in action:

At first, Steph was worried as to how the triceratops sculpture might be received. Then she remembered the first law of Juanita and felt much becalmed.
