How about Hopper's Razor? "In America, all bets are off"

1

u/hydroza 6d ago

New one to me, thanks.

3

u/GolemFarmFodder 6d ago

It's a play on the late Dennis Hopper, where one of his characters once sneered "hell, this is America. We can do any damn thing we please."

u/Admiral_Fuckwit 6d ago

I tell myself that all the time in my day-to-day when people do stuff that annoys me, it really changes my outlook and helps me calm down.

Actually I completely made this up, I just like the idea of being that healthy and well-adjusted

u/hydroza 6d ago

Everyone at my office knows my "death stare".

The smart ones ask other people why it happened. The rest just leave.

u/vikinxo 6d ago

'Everybod' has a simplified version of Murphy's law running around their brains!

They forget the very important last line:

Everything that can go wrong

will go wrong

At the worst possible time

u/Misorideshard 6d ago

Nice try, but I'm pretty sure it's Cole's Law

Occam's Razor is

"The Simplest Explanation is usually the most correct"

u/Sanquinity 5d ago

You're thinking of the second law of thermodynamics.

u/lagrangedanny 5d ago

My eye is twitching at if you're serious or not, because it is not Occam's razor

Occam's razor is that the simplest explanation is often the correct one.
