I was of the impression that Murphy’s laws were actually written by a guy named Murphy. It’s only a lot later did I know that it was a flexible set of laws to which anyone could add their own, provided they’re weird enough and agreeable with a large section of the ppl. This made me think for a while and I realized, that I have a couple of my own laws/experiences which cud be appended to the already huge Murphy set. So here goes ….
If you’re going to the lectures, surely there’s not gonna be any surprise quiz(es) that day!
It’s only from your batch that the question paper pattern changes for each exam!
You happen to teach one girl, for one hour, one day before an exam and your peers make sure that that one mistake haunts you for the rest of your life!!
It’s invariably on the exam day that you wont find a single dependable pen, a trip to the stationery store is a must !
It’s only when you’re in the loo (two hours before the exam) and have just started downloading that you get these STD and ISD calls from long lost friends!
It’s only when you don’t have the change to buy a bus ticket that even the conductor appears not to have the change.
It’s only when you spit phlegm out through a window of a moving bus that the phlegm manages to land on a bald guy’s forehead. (the rest is history)
A friend, of the female kind (the one mentioned earlier) calls you on your landline (asking about ur exam) only when the whole family is sitting on the couch next to it watching a soap opera, with ears wide open!
During a cricket match (enjoying the post-exam relief time), when your side is batting, it is only when your turn comes to pad up to go bat (invariably at the end, the last wicket more often than not), that the ‘guard’ is not to be found! Too scared to go and face the music without ‘the shield’, but cant keep searching for long, otherwise will be timed out !
(Once you get timed out, u remember that watching a movie is on the agenda) Every movie whose tickets u’ve bought in ‘black’ turns out to be an utter flop ! (Dhoom 2 being the latest, your girl is stunned that you could not manage to buy balcony tickets, doesn’t speak to u throughout the movie!)
The stranger next to u in a public place (the movie hall), invariably knows the vernacular (in this case, Tamil) that you are using to swear at him/her !(the rest, again is history….get kicked out of the theater, ur girl accepts a lift offered by another handsome hunk, u return home with bruises, only to find a huge family gathering, all gleefully waiting for ur arrival)
The porno CD collection that’s been in a safe and secure place for eons, somehow falls out during this family gathering, into the hands of your 8 year old cousins!(the rest again, is history !)
Your cell’s Sim card loses its validity on the very day(the next day) that you are expecting the break-up call from ur girl !
Your battery loses its charge when you’re mid-way through a call, trying to make up the break-up that happened during the last call before your validity had expired :P ( lets hope the rest is not history :P)
