Anyone have any they would liketo add? I’ll start with a few:
1. Law of Gravity – Any tool, nut, bolt, screw, when dropped, will roll to the least accessible corner.
2. Law of Probability -The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of your act
3. Law of Random Numbers – If you dial a wrong number, you never get a busy signal and someone always answers.
4. Law of the Alibi – If you tell the boss you were late for work because you had a flat tire, the very next morning you will have a flat tire..
5. 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).
6. Law of the Bath – When the body is fully immersed in water, the telephone rings.
7. 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.
8. Law of the Result – When you try to prove to someone that a machine won’t work, it will.
9. Law of Biomechanics – The severity of the itch is inversely proportional to the reach.
10.. Law of the Theater and Hockey Arena – At any event, the people whose seats are furthest from the aisle, always arrive last. They are the ones who will leave their seats several times to go for food, beer, or the toilet and who leave early before the end of the performance or the game is over. The folks in the aisle seats come early, never move once, have long gangly legs or big bellies, and stay to the bitter end of the performance.. The aisle people also are very surly folk.
11. The Coffee 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.
12. Murphy’s Law of Lockers – If there are only two people in a locker room, they will have adjacent lockers.
13. Law of Physical Surfaces – The chances of an open-faced jelly sandwich landing face down on a floor, are directly correlated to the newness and cost of the carpet or rug.
14… Law of Logical Argument – Anything is possible if you don’t know what you are talking about.
15. Brown’s Law of Physical Appearance – If the clothes fit, they’re ugly.
16. Oliver’s Law of Public Speaking – A closed mouth gathers no feet.
17. WalMart’s Law of Commercial Marketing Strategy – As soon as you find a product that you really like, they will stop stocking it.
18. 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.

You for got the regular Murphy’s law:
Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.
If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.

toomuch00- very true!
December 13, 2010 6:49 pm at 6:49 pm #717435bptParticipantDon’t take it too literaly. Unless you’ve shed 50 lbs (or just put on 50 lbs) people will just say “oh you look like you’ve lost weight” becuase they know that everyone loves to hear that. Besides, who among us is not on / going on / planning to go on / just getting off a diet?
(P.S. You look fabulous, regardless of what the media is saying)
December 13, 2010 7:31 pm at 7:31 pm #717436blinkyParticipantLaw of Teachers- They don’t seem to notice your hand when you know the answer, but when you don’t know the answer you can be sure you will be called on! Its not fair!!
December 15, 2010 7:41 pm at 7:41 pm #717437blinkyParticipantLaw of Garbage- (usually at work) When you finally decide to throw our stuff from your desk that you had saved just in case your gonna need it, and it just sat and collected dust, the next day someone will ask you “oh i must have that paper can i have it…” It always happens!!!
