Do You Believe in Murphys Law?

I believe over there maybe it's called Sod's Law?
I believe in it, maybe its the pessimist side of me.

Oh no AC..it is true..

Buttered toast always falls on the buttered side...

When you think you are OK financially..a socking great bill clonks onto your doormat..

And when there is light at the end of the tunnel..it is usually an oncoming express train..

I suppose it is very similar to 'pride before a fall'. Whenever I think in this manner I'm normally mistaken and the opposite is true - if you see what I mean.

It may be referred to as "The law According to Sod", but in actuality it is the basic law of physics which states that if something can go wrong it will

Not really. I seem to recall it's the fourth law of thermodynamics (there are actually only three)

However I have never heard of it as a belief system, I wonder if it is tax exempt?
