Murphy's Law

February 01 2014

A light hearted look at things that happen that just make you go WTF?! :) Here's mine :) Before I came to RHP (because I didn't know about it) I joined a popular dating site. One where you don't get to browse and after filling out an excruciatingly long questionnaire and melting the plastic, they send you your matches. I was anticipating connecting with some truly awesome people and I was excited to have put my self back in the game... Then came the first email with my first match....the excitement! Woo hoo! Thinking omg there are men out there that are compatible :) I opened it.....and there he was my 1st perfect match...... My EX......bwwhhaaaaaa FML! After I picked my jaw up off the floor I ran screaming and never again have I been back to that site lol What's your Murphy's Law moment? Murphy's law is an adage or epigram that is typically stated as: Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. - Posted from rhpmobile

Anytime I say, "yep due to xyz, it should be a nice calm night at work" or "we should get out of here earlier than expected" everything turns to shite!!

As night follows day. Take a shit and the phone rings. Get in the shower and the delivery you've been waiting days for shows up and the driver just leaves the damn "collect from post office tomorrow" card.

I have this love hate relationship with my favorite rugby league team that seems like Murphy's law to me.Every time I sit down to watch a game they bloody lose, I get all comfortable with a nice cold one and some nibbles and they play like a pack of amateurs.Every time I refuse to watch they seem to win convincingly. Is Murphy telling me something????Glen

Take a shit and the phone rings. Mine is I am sitting on the toilet and my neighbor walks in and calls out, where are you.Oh we have a unique friendship, please don't ask me for details.:).The only time we could have had sex was on a holiday with the kids.And I was lying in bed and farted my heart out under the doona, in he comes all nicely clean with a towel around him and ask me can I come under the doona.Ohh fuck, I said I farted the whole time and lifted my doona, lol he was out of the room quick smart.i lost my chance for ever....but we are friends :)

I have worked out that it doesn't matter which lane of traffic I pick, it will be the slowest. It may have been going faster, but as soon as I change lanes, suddenly it slows right down and the lane I just left starts speeding ahead. Also, my very first car was called Murphy...yes after Murphy's Law. It was an old Valiant that had originally been my parent's car, they found it sitting in a paddock in a seaside suburb here in Townsville, bought it for $500 and proceeded to fix and renovate it until it was actually a pretty good car. After I got my licence I inherited it and drove it for a year or so, until it finally lived up to its name and the gear box shat itself, rendering me stuck in a Hungry Jack's car park. Afterwards we also found out that apparently the bottom of it had been full of rust and I had been lucky the whole engine hadn't fallen out, so I guess there's always a silver lining.

Mrs fun & I used to quite regularly set aside evenings or weekends just for our own pure pleasure together but of course something always came up or someone always turned up unexpectedly to quash our plans & my response was always the same....That bloody Murphy strikes again !! Damn he's got a lot to answer for !!! Hence we now just make our time any time that either of us feels the urge. I suppose it's a good thing in a way as the spontaneity is awesoeme but it would be so nice to just once plan our special us time & have it come to fruition without having to plan a weekend getaway. RubanesqueRed I do have to say that your encounter with Murphy takes a heck of a lot of beating though ! Although it was obviously a jaw dropping experience you'd rather not have had it did at least show that nobody knows who your perfect partner is better than you do yourself & even though your ex wasn't smart enough to remain your perfect partner he obviously was for a period of your life when you must have been very happy. So trust your own instincts as they won't let you down & the computer in your head will make better decisions than any you ask to provide him to you from a questionaire. Mr fun
