Observation #1: The Generation Gap, observed by Andrew Baldman

Older generations are slow to warm to the stud concept. They are even more baffled when hearing it for the first time and usually don't even acknowledge the announcement. So far, only one exception to this observation has been found.

Observation #2: The Action-Reaction Observation, observed by Richard Davis Greten

Newton's third law observes,

"To every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction."

This familiar law is analogous to Rule #5: Stud Volume. The more arrogant some is in their "stud action" (action) the more offended they are when stud is sounded (reaction). Someone that is truly arrogant will get very upset when someone calls them a stud. In contrast, someone who boasts in jest will find just as much humor in a "stud reaction".

Observation #3: An Ad Hoc observation regarding Rule #7, observed by Steven Farrow

Calling a girl a stud would be like calling a guy a bitch.

Observation #4: More Stud Etiquette, observed by Nathan Lipson

When sounding stud at a loud volume, as in Rule #5, it is customary to also lengthen is pronunciation, id est, "Stuuuuud".

Observation #5: The Setup, observed by Thomas Laramee

Advanced practitioners of stud theory may capitalize on instances of boastfulness by actively seeking out victims, and setting them up.

For example, let's say you already knew of your friend's success on a test and you knew he was just waiting for an excuse to tell (bragg to) someone. You could ask,

 listener: "So, how did you do on the test the other day?"
  speaker: "I got an 'A'."
 listener: "Stud"
You may face rebuttle in this situation.
  speaker: "Hey, that's not fair.  You asked me."
 listener: "So.  That doesn't matter.  Just check The Rules."
