Murphy's new laws


Saw this entry online today, quite interesting. How many can u relate to? Enjoy :)

1. Law of Mechanical Repair - After your hands become coated with grease, your nose will begin to itch and you'll have to pee.
(I don't repair nothing but have seen a person aka daddy suffer plenty of times!)


2. Law of Gravity - Any tool, when dropped, will roll to the least accessible corner.
(Tools? Surely you mean also pens, coins, water bottles, remote controls, vouchers... anything and EVERYTHING really.)


3. Law of Probability -The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of your act.
(What can I say? It's true.)

4 . Law of Random Numbers - If you dial a wrong number, you never get a busy signal and someone always answers.
(Hello? Jane? Is that you? C'mon lah don't play one.)

5. Law of the Alibi - If you tell the boss you were late for work because you had a flat tyre, the very next morning you will have a flat tyre.
(9th Commandment: Thou Shalt NOT Lie. Nuff said.)

6. Variation Law - If you change lines (or traffic lanes), the one you were in will always move faster than the one you are in now (works every time).
(WORKS EVERY TIME!)

7. Law of the Bath - When the body is fully immersed in water, the telephone rings.
(Or mobile rings for those living in the modern age.)

8. Law of Close Encounters -The probability of meeting someone you know increases dramatically when you are with someone you don't want to be seen with.
(Or when you are wearing last week's clothes today.)


9. Law of the Result - When you try to prove to someone that a machine won't work, it will.
(Try proving that a machine works, it works - still.)

10. Law of Biomechanics - The severity of the itch is inversely proportional to the reach.
(TRUE!)


11. Law of the Theatre - At any event, the people whose seats are furthest from the aisle arrive last.
(Law of the Movies - Backseat bogans throw popcorns at you.)


12. The Starbucks Law - As soon as you sit down to a cup of hot coffee, your boss will ask you to do something which will last until the coffee is cold.
(Apparently Starbucks is too good for Perth.)


13. Murphy's Law of Lockers - If there are only two people in a locker room, they will have adjacent lockers.
(Funny that!)


14. Law of Physical Surfaces - The chances of an open-faced jam sandwich landing face down on a floor covering are directly correlated to the newness and cost of the carpet/rug.
(I spilled BBT to our new carpet once, my bad.)


15. Law of Logical Argument - Anything is possible if you don't know what you are talking about.
(And look stupid - Scroll to Law of Probability [3].)


16. Brown's Law of Physical Appearance - If the clothes fit, they're ugly.
(Or expensive.)


17. Oliver's Law of Public Speaking - A closed mouth gathers no feet.
(BYO feet if you are desperate.)


18. Wilson's Law of Commercial Marketing Strategy - As soon as you find a product that you really like, they will stop making it.
(Or Sold Out.)


19. Doctors' Law - If you don't feel well, make an appointment to go to the doctor, by the time you get there you'll feel better. Don't make an appointment and you'll stay sick.
(Go see Doc ASAP.)
