I am not sure where else to post this question.
If someone corrects grammar and/or spelling in posts in forums, they often make mistakes themselves.
Someone coined a 'law' describing this.
Does anyone know the name of this law?

A man walked into a car showroom.
He said to the salesman, “My wife would like to talk to you about the Volkswagen Golf in the showroom window.”
Salesman said, “We haven't got a Volkswagen Golf in the showroom window.”
The man replied, “You have now mate".
