Murphy's Lesser Known Laws



1. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.


2. The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.


3. Those who live by the sword get shot by those who don't.


4. If the shoe fits, get another one just like it ... well, except that it should be for the other foot.


5. If you lined up all the cars in the world end to end, someone would be stupid enough to try to pass them, five or six at a time ... on a hill .. in the fog.


6. The things that come to those who wait will be the things left by those who got there first.


7. A shin bone is a device for finding furniture in a dark room.


8. Remember: When you go into court, you are putting yourself in the hands of 12 people who weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty.


9. Flashlight: A carrying case for dead batteries

Wrongs can be different between cultures and can change over time. Some cultures believe that certain food must be prepared in a certain way and it is wrong to do otherwise. That wrong my have evolved before refrigeration was available and so may no longer be applicable. Even so, there will be some who follow the tradition just because it worked for prior generations. For people who believed in the necessity for racial purity some people it was wrong to have integrated schools, shared restaurants and bathrooms. For people who believed in male superiority, it used to be wrong for women to expect equal pay. For populations that were dying because of disease or loss of life in war and natural disaster, one can imagine that homosexuality was discouraged because it diverted sexual energy from reproduction. I suspect that if you check the 10 Commandments you will find that each was described to discourage actions that tended to have bad results for those societies at that time and probably still does. In many cases, just as you have described and to the developed world of the 21st century, these bad results appear quite logical. In Biblical times, only a few understood the logic or had the wisdom. Moses was very wise indeed and knew that the long suffering Tribes would never have believed he could personally have such wisdom but if he described these as the words of God, well . . . . . .

I love the 50-50-90 rule. I'm going to remember that one. Here's a few more:

O'Toole's Commentary on Murphy's Laws;
Murphy was an optimist.

Ginsberg's Theorems;
You can't win.
You can't break even.
You can't even quit the game.

Forsyth's Second Corollary to Murphy's Laws;
Just when you see the light at the end of the tunnel, the roof caves in.

Weiler's Law;
Nothing is impossible for the man who doesn't have to do it himself.
