What are the rules of the Internet?

Godwin's Law, Lewis' Law, Poe's Law and more, we look at the laws that govern how people behave online.

What are the rules of the internet?



No.

[CaitiffFTW]

Lewis' Law is pretty much bullshit. Seriously, what proper Feminist would actually leave a comment section open?

[Jack-lpgc]

I was expecting the actual list of rules for the internet (the one rule 34 is from)

[kushalthapa]

I really like your facial expressions and your sense of humour.

[ObservingLibertarian]

The internet's most important law: *"That which has been seen - cannot be unseen."*

Seriously... you should have warned people about that as a PSA stipulating to never search, any word or phrase, in any web browser, by images, without the maturity filter turned on. Or else they'd become intimately familiar with the nature, gravity and depth of Rule 34.

[akhijannunhal-kavit]

The rule 35 is that, if no porn of everything is found at the moment, it will be made
There's a whole set, I'd tell you who made them in back then, but the rules 1 and 2 say I shouldn't.

Internet rule #1: we do not talk about /b/
Internet rule #2: we do NOT talk about /b/

[NicErdman]

Lewis' Law may be better known by it's other name Circular Logic.

Vintage JJ videos still deliver quality entertainment. That’s a rule you can take to the bank

[j_jizzle_]

Love how his video style never changed over 6 years

[Pratchettgaiman]

There's also the Jewish corollary to Godwin's Law: any conversation about Jews, Judaism, or Israel will invoke Godwin's Law within 5 comments

[MrHudson]

I would like to point out that the first rule of the internet is we don't talk about /b/.

[casualsleepingdragon]

You mist a big one, rule 63(for any character ever made there's a vertion of that character who is the opposite gender)

[cesareogarcia]

this was pretty educational man, good job

[HumanAmerAzmiRohazam]

Godwin's Law.
Lewis Law.
Confirmation Bias.
Gross Pizza Law.
Rule 34.
Poe's Law.
Betteridge's Law.

[snipermonkey]

What about Murphy’s law

The best way to get an answer is to post the wrong answer

[thacooltiger]

Rule number 63: if it’s a male then there has to be a female version of it

[Shamino]

Do you accentuate your 'aboot' purposefully or is that a learned thing in the West? In Ontario here I am constantly told by my American buddies that I do 'aboot' but, listening back to myself, I simply don't hear it. When listening to you though, it's plain as absolute day.

[Gallalad]

I'd like to propose Sargon's law: That tumblr feminists are offended regardless of what you say

[sphereriorcorporation]

What was in that box in the back ground?
