The law that, in generality and absent mitigating circumstances or context, “the fact that you have to say ‘they’re not that bad’ means that they are that bad.”
First published after extensive research into the sexually available women of Boston, MA in the 2012 Seth MacFarlane film Ted, spoken by the eponymous Ted, whom MacFarlane also voiced.
Ted:
Look, all I'm saying is that Boston women are, on the whole, a paler, uglier sort than women from the elsewheres of life.
John:
That's bullshit. What about Lori? She's hot.
Ted:
No, Lori's from Pennsylvania. That's not a Boston girl.
John:
They're not that bad.
Ted:
See, the fact that you have to say "they're not that bad" means that they are that bad.
Guy watching the movie: So that’s where Ted’s Law comes from!
Awkward kid that knows how to ruin a good time. Cant roll a blunt but loves ripping fatties. You can always find him on grenade patrol
Fuck Ted Dunn!

I had such a great time at Mario’s, and because of the Kris-Ted effect, I didn’t spend a dollar!
When two guys go out for a fun night, don’t objectify women, meet a lot of people, and in the process of not being assholes, they get drinks bought for them.
Dude, last night I saved so much money because the Kris-Ted effect
