Murphy's law is a popular adage in western culture that broadly states that things will go wrong in any given situation, if you give them a chance. "If there's more than one possible outcome of a job or task, and one of those outcomes will result in disaster or an undesirable consequence, then somebody will do it that way." It is most often cited as "Whatever can go wrong will go wrong, and at the worst possible time,"
And now the humorous take on Murphy's law...!! (Applies a lot to my life you see...)
receive his attention a lot more than the 'lucky' ones. Im one of them and Im really proud of the fact that Lord Murphy devotes so much time and attention to me!!

Response to comments : I believe Lord Murphy has chosen ones. These people
THE PRIME AXIOM: In any field of scientific endeavor, anything that
can go wrong, will.
2. If the possibility exists of several things going wrong, the one that
will go wrong is the one that will do the most damage.
3. Everything will go wrong at one time.
3.1 That time is always when you least expect it.
4. If nothing can go wrong, something will.
5. Nothing is as easy as it looks.
6. Everything takes longer than you think.
7. Left to themselves, things always go from bad to worse.
8. Nature always sides with the hidden flaw.
9. Given the most inappropriate time for something to go wrong, that's
when it will occur.
10. Mother Nature is a bitch.
10.1 The universe is not indifferent to intelligence, it is actively
hostile to it.
11. If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked
something.
12. If in any problem you find yourself doing an immense amount of work,
the answer can be obtained by simple inspection.
13. Never make anything simple and efficient when a way can be found
to make it complex and wonderful.
14. If it doesn't fit, use a bigger hammer.
15. In an instrument or device characterized by a number of plus-or-minus
errors, the total error will be the sum of all the errors adding in
the same direction.
16. In any given calculation, the fault will never be placed if more than
one person is involved.
16.1 In any given discovery, the credit will never be properly placed
if more than one person is involved.
17. All warranty and guarantee clauses become invalid upon payment of
the final invoice.
You may think I'm a pessimist. But I really am an optimist with a LOT
of experience :)

i have always wanted to write about murphy's law and how flawed it is.. but its an explanation thats too simple and not worth the time i'l spend on writing about it so i didnt bother.. :-) murphy's law seems to apply only when one is in a nad situation or when u apply it to someone ina bad situation.. it never happens to the "luckier" ppl.. nice post though..
