Murphy’s Law

I first heard this term from a gd fren of mine.. a long time back.. either when I was in secondary sch or JC.. oh.. those gd old days..

It basically means "if anything can go wrong, it will."

There are different versions to it too..
Here’s some..

- If anything simply cannot go wrong, it will anyway.
- If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something
- Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse
- Murphy's Law of ThermodynamicsThings get worse under pressure.
- The Murphy PhilosophySmile . . . tomorrow will be worse.
- Murphy's Law of ResearchEnough research will tend to support whatever theory.
- Murphy's Military Laws
If your advance is going well, you are walking into an ambush.
- Murphy's Technology Laws
A computer makes as many mistakes in two seconds as 20 men working 20 years make.
- Murphy's Love Laws
All the good ones are taken.
Availability is a function of time. The minute you get interested is the minute they find someone else.
- Murphy's Laws of sex
Before you find your handsome prince, you've got to kiss a lot of frogs.
- The chance of the bread falling with the buttered side down is directly proportional to the cost of the carpet.
- A valuable dropped item will always fall into an inaccessible place (a diamond ring down the drain, for example) - or into the garbage disposal while it is running.
- After you bought a replacement for something you've lost and searched for everywhere, you'll find the original.
- The other line always moves faster.
- The light at the end of the tunnel is a train
- Traffic is inversely proportional to how late you are, or are going to be.
- You will find an easy way to do it, after you've finished doing it.
- The wind will always blow opposite to your hairdo
- When you really need something, its either not available, or can't be found. When you don't need it, its either available, or lays around in plain sight.
- The difference between Stupidity and Genius is that Genius has its limits.
- Murphy's golden rule: whoever has the gold makes the rules.

I have no idea why I borught this up.. just felt like talking abt it.. =)
