Skarka's Law

From RationalWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Skarka's Law pretty much sums up the world of the Internet Hate Machine and all who sail in her. It states:

On internet messageboards, there is no subject so vile or indefensible that someone won't post positively/in defense of it.

[1]

It is named after RPG.net user Gareth-Michael Skarka.[2] Legend has it that the law was not only coined, but also inspired by him due to a very antagonistic posting style, although this is probably incorrect.

Not to be confused with The Shaker's Law, which states that "no matter how many times you shake it, the last drop always goes down your trouser leg".
