Murphy's Laws
Most of you have known about "Murphy's Laws". Basically, a Murphy's Law, is a statement of obvious fact. Everyday life one will encounter strange dilemmas or paradoxes. I found an interesting site: Murphy's Laws. I decided to make up a few of my own. When I mean "make up" - it's something i came up with, hopefully without plagiarism. If somebody else came up with them (which I'm currently unaware of), then it's their credit (let me know). Anyway, here there are...
At the shopping mall:
At the shopping mall:
- The queue you're in is always the slowest, independent of how many people are in front.
- Corollary: When you're in the express lane, the regular lanes move faster.
- "8 items or less" is always interpreted as "8 items at least"
- The most vital ingredient is always out of stock.
- Corollary: The only one left has already been opened. (or expired, or sampled).
- It always looks tastier/bigger in the ads (works for any fast food restaurant)
For cars:
- All complete-care car washes include an invisible target for overhead birds.
- All complete-care car washes initiate an all out war between Duststorm and Rainman
- On a long and windy, one-lane road trip, the slow car in front is headed for your destination.
- In any journey, you're never the idiot.
- In an accident, when your car is totaled beyond recognition, the other car can still make the showroom.
- The 100m rule: you always run out of fuel with 100m to go before the next station, or 100m after you passed one.
- Corollary/add-on: whichever way you have to push your car, it's always uphill.
