I'm sure most people have seen this already, but I wanted to insure that I'd be able to find it again with ease (and I didn't feel like saving to my computer, just in case it crashes.) So, here we go: Murphy's Transformers Laws (which I don't own, just in case.)
Transformers laws
- Never deceive yourself thinking you're the toughest Transformer; if Hasbro doesn't want to sell your toy, they'll find a way to kill you off.
Corollary: If enough people complain, they'll bring you back and piss off the continuity-worshipping fan-boys. - Murphy's Law of Acceptable Disguise
All good altmodes are taken. - Just because you have a ten in one of your stats doesn't mean some leader toy can't pulverize you with it's 10+ stat.
- Cybertronian Marksmanship is an oxymoron.
- Murphy's Cybertron Blues T-Shirt Analogy:
My family was killed in the Great War that has lasted for millions of years, my city got burned down, Decepticons ripped me to pieces, Unicron attempted to eat my home world, and all I got was this stinking Autobot sigil burned onto my chest. - Shoot them all, let Primus sort them out.
- If you have an aerial altmode and take to the sky, someone will hit you with an EMP blast.
- When you think you've cornered someone, they'll call in their friends and combine into a huge lumbering giant who will promptly crush you.
- If your leader carries a big cannon on his right arm, respectfully request a transfer.
- Even if you wield the Matrix, end the war and save the universe a few times, there'll still be a writer out there who will see to it that you'll be remembered for that one horrible story you were in.
- The typical job interview will begin with "So, what cultural stereotype do you represent ?"
Corollary: There are no original characters, just stereotypes that haven't become prominent yet. - The more powerful your altmode, the longer and easier to interrupt your transformation will be.
Corollary: Your inner workings are not stressed to withstand hits by directed energy weaponry. - Nobody ever really dies; everyone comes back to bug you and make you waste your ammunition on them.
Corollary: You're the exception, since you're unpopular and will be phased out of the series. - Murphy's Nitpicking Note:
Every character has an aspect that can and will be insulted and ridiculed at length.
