It suddenly made more sense when I followed the link to [[http://www.racialicious.com/2009/12/21/and-we-shall-call-this-moffs-law/ the blog post that introduced the name \\\"Moff\\\'s Law\\\"]], to see the full version. The TV Tropes page does acknowledge that it provides only an \\\"abridged, vitriol-less version\\\", but the problem is that the real Moff\\\'s Law is part of what was excised.
Here\\\'s the real Moff\\\'s Law:
> Of all the varieties of irritating comment out there, the absolute most annoying has to be “Why can’t you just watch the movie for what it is??? Why can’t you just enjoy it? Why do you have to analyze it???”
> If you have posted such a comment, or if you are about to post such a comment, here or anywhere else, let me just advise you: Shut up. [...] SHUT. UP.
(It\\\'s a \\\"law\\\" as much in the sense of \\\"rules and regulations\\\" as in the sense of \\\"observation about the world\\\"; the last sentence of the above-linked blog post states that:
> From now on, we will refer to this as “Moff’s law” and apply it alongside our comments policy here at Racialicious.
meaning, apparently, that such comments are now outlawed there.)
----
I\\\'ll see if I can rectify this issue . . .
