We've All Heard of Godwin's Law...

... but has anyone yet invented a name for the Law stating how every cycling-related blog results in someone posting something along the lines of one or all of the following :

"cyclists don't pay road tax"
"all cyclists RLJ"
"cyclists are always on the pavement"
"cycling on the roads will definitely kill you to death"

?

By the way, whats the name of the Rule where every internet discussion must eventual mention hitler and the nazis ?

Has anyone yet invented a name for the Law stating how every cycling-related blogs always results in some massive idiot(s) posting something along the lines of one or all of the following :

"cyclists don't pay road tax"
"cyclists all RLJ"
"cyclists are always on the pavement"
"cycling on the roads will definitely kill you"

edit: just wondering if it is you - not an accusation of plagiarism or anything.

I always thought that the blog had to finish if hitler or the nazis were mentioned.

Perhaps I'm wrong. It wouldn't be unusual.

Wasn't this discussion on Qi?
