Murphy's Law

How many times have you had a tram show up at the exact moment you light a cigarette or it started raining the very day you forgot your umbrella?

Murphy's Law is a proverb or epigram, and also the wisdom of life, which was named by the American engineer Edward A. Murphy with his unforgettable saying.

Murphy’s Law is a generally accepted sarcastic thinking that makes a series of statements based on unmistakable experiential conclusions about human faults and faults in complex systems.

Murphy's Law in its most famous form describes that "If something can go wrong, it will go wrong."

In this form the saying has been known since ancient times, and it is interesting that even today it is used equally often and cautiously not only by pessimists but also by alpinists and chemists, mechanics and engineers, and one physicist cites Murphy's law as the fourth law of thermodynamics. ).

In a 1977 foreword to his book Murphy's Law and Other Reasons Why Things Are Going WRONG, Arthur Bloch cites a letter he received from a quality control manager at NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab explaining the origins of Murphy's Law:

“… The law was named after Captain Ed Murphy, one of the development engineers. Frustration at the belt drive, which didn't work because there was an error connecting the bridge tension gauges, prompted him to remark, "If there's any way to do it wrong, he'll do it wrong," referring to the technician who connected bridges in the laboratory. That statement and its variations are called Murphy's Law. "

Murphy's basic laws

If something can go wrong, then it will.

If there is a possibility that more things will go wrong, then the one that will cause the most damage will go wrong.

If everything seems to be fine, you have obviously overlooked something.

Laugh… tomorrow will be even worse.

It is impossible to do anything resistant to fools, because fools are so ingenious.

It all takes more time than initially thought.

Whenever you set out to do something, something else needs to be done beforehand.

The probability that bread spread with butter will fall on the spread side of the carpet is proportional to the value of the carpet.

A falling object will always fall so as to cause the most damage.

No matter how long you look for the cheapest product, as soon as you buy it, it will be on sale somewhere else.

The queue you are waiting for is always the slowest.

To get a loan, you must first prove that you do not need it.

When you show the service technician where the fault is on the device, the device works perfectly.

Don’t argue with a fool, those who listen may not notice the difference.

What you want you cannot have, what you have is not what you want.

When you store something in a "safe place", you will no longer be able to find it.

The light at the end of the tunnel is a train.

The paper is always the strongest on the perforation.

Chaos always prevails because it is more organized.

The wind always blows in the opposite direction to the hairstyle.

Murphy's laws of love

All the good ones are busy.

If a person is not busy, there is a reason for it.

Always repeat to her that she is beautiful, especially if she is not.

Computer laws

No matter how many resources you have, there are never enough of them.

Each program you want to install requires more memory than you have.

When you finally have enough memory, you don’t have enough disk space.

The discs are always full. It is pointless to try to free up disk space.

If you have enough memory and disk space, the program will lock.

If the program hasn't blocked yet, don't worry, it's just waiting for the right moment.

A disk will only break when you have important data on it and you do not have a backup.

The important e-mail you wait for all day will come just when you disconnect from the Internet.

The only program that works perfectly is a virus.

Bus laws

If it is raining or cold, the bus will be late.

If you are late the bus will be late too.

If you are late, the bus has arrived on time - if you arrive on time, the bus is late.

Cars

The largest vehicle has the right of way.

The car always breaks down at an inconvenient time.

If the fault is small, to get to the part that caused the fault, the mechanic must remove the complete engine.

As soon as you wash the car, it will rain.

The cleaner the glass, the stronger it attracts insects.

The child will always fall asleep in the car 5 minutes before you arrive at your destination.

The more late you are, the more red lights you will come across at the traffic light.

The tire always bursts when you don’t have a spare.

Mom

Moms give advice only in two cases: when you are looking for them and when you are not looking for them.

Mom is the only person who knows more about you than you do.

The better a mom is, the more likely her children are spoiled.

Whatever you do, Mom will criticize you.

Mom is responsible for all your successes, you are to blame for your mistakes.
