Murphy Law
Heard of it? post your experiences.
Havn't heard of it? I'll try and give you the run down the best I can. It's when something happens when you don't want it tohappen the most or just something that usually happens but seems for weird. For instance your running late for work and there just happens to be alot of traffic, or a traffic jam. or for another example Your taking something apart the last part/piece that needs to be removed is giving you an incredibly hard time. ex. Taking shelf off of a wall the last screw is as stubborn as hell and you use nearly all your stenrgth to finally get it out. Just dumb crap that happens often but seems very odd. |

Some corrollaries to Murphy's law:
Left to themselves, things will go from bad to worse. If it jams, force it. If it breaks, you needed an new one anyway. Do not fuck with Mrs. Murphy. All things being equal, fat people use more soap than thin people. Nature sides with the hidden flaw. Logic does not fix things, it just gives you a reason why they went wrong. Mathematics will not solve anything either, it just allows you to screw up by the numbers. Computers are no help at all: all they do is high speed mathematics. Where are we going and what am I doing in this handbasket? Interchangeable parts will not. Non stick surfaces will. There is no such thing as a foolproof plan, because fools are so ingenious. In any softwear, there will be enough bugs that the beata testers will be convinced that they found them all, and only leave the really critical ones in the final release for the user to find. It's not a bug. It's a feature. There is almost no problem that cannot be solved with a suitable application of high explosives. If you are one of thoses people who believes that nothing is impossible, try strinking a match on jelly. Murphy was an optimist.
