Im losing the will to live[ongoing]

That mantra is no longer taught, as there are actually more instances of where the opposite is true! - sorry :o

Interesting fact though is that words use a pareto distribution (see Zipfs law), I am guessing (not looked it up) higher ranked words follow the rule (as a majority) and lower ones don't.

Meaning you are correct but also we only a fraction of our words for the majority of our language, 20% of the words for 80% of our communication in fact! That might account for the presence of the rule, would it make it valid though?
