A law restricting activities or sales of goods on Sunday, which stems from the accommodation of Christian Sunday worship. Many states continue the use of blue laws for the sole sake of tradition. Many states in the Southern United States still practice of these blue laws. These are called Blue Law States.
The blue law is usually referenced with respect to the prohibited sale of alcohol. However, it is often associated with the prohibition of any sales whatsoever.
"I hate Georgia; you can't buy any alcohol from 12AM Saturday to 12AM Sunday. How am I supposed to watch sports on Sunday without any beer? Damn blue laws."

Former in-laws. After a divorce, your spouse's family are no longer your in-laws, they are your out-laws.
"I'm still on good terms with my out-laws." "My mother-out-law is a real sweet woman. She even sent me a Mother's Day card!" "My out-laws are in town so they stopped by my house to visit their grandchildren."

Coined by League of Legends streamer Elite500 (Calvin), it states
> Giving a bad player kills will not make him better.
That is, the better player will win in all likelihood, regardless of leads gained early game. One should take comfort in his skill above his opponent rather than frustration with circumstances caused by jungler dynamics or other arbitraries, fundamentally out of his control.
Calvin’s Law is ultimately a generalization of common economic knowledge, that lump-sum cash transfers are typically the least effective type of aid which can be given (most notably, the cash transfer programs undertaken by numerous US NGOs in developing areas of Africa). Research by the Overseas Development Institute finds that the risk of corruption, lack of longer-term investment opportunities, and lack of infrastructure and training often render lump-sum cash transfers as the worst alternative among such options as direct training/building/humanitarian aid or regular smaller cash transfers.
Put another way, Calvin’s Law is commentary on the increasingly nepotic and privileged social dynamics of modern society, and a statement of hope despite such conditions. That, regardless of one’s birth and upbringing, as long as one possesses the skill necessary, deserved success will come, in due time.
This isn’t a death, it’s my Calvin’s Law angle!
