Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.
You will always find something in the last place you look.
No matter how long or how hard you shop for an item, after you've bought it, it will be on sale somewhere cheaper.
The other line always moves faster.
In order to get a loan, you must first prove you don't need it.
Anything you try to fix will take longer and cost you more than you thought.
If you fool around with a thing for very long you will screw it up.
If it jams - force it. If it breaks, it needed replacing anyway.
When a broken appliance is demonstrated for the repairman, it will work perfectly.
Build a system that even a fool can use, and only a fool will use it.
Everyone has a scheme for getting rich that will not work.
In any hierarchy, each individual rises to his own level of incompetence, and then remains there.
There's never time to do it right, but there's always time to do it over.
When in doubt, mumble. When in trouble, delegate.
Anything good in life is either illegal, immoral or fattening.
Murphy's golden rule: whoever has the gold makes the rules.
Nature always sides with the hidden flaw.
A Smith & Wesson beats four aces.
In case of doubt, make it sound convincing.
Never argue with a fool, people might not know the difference.

Yes I love it also. It happens so much in life and there is not a thing you can do about it. It is soooooo true also.

The first one after Murphy's Law cracks me up every time I hear it. Reminds me of an old George Carlin routine about "You will always find something in the last place you look". Well of course you do, if you keep looking then something's wrong with you. Even if it's the first place you look and find it, it's still the last place you look!

I like the extended version even better.. Anything that can go wrong, will, at a the worst possible time.

George Carlin is the funniest and most satirical comedian ever. Susan

Murphy's law is something i find very interesting and true :p My mate first introduced me to Murphy's Law and since then ive read a fair few of them :P I also found a poster with a lot of the laws written on it and also pictures to demonstrate some of the problems lol. I was quite tempted to buy it, but i thought it a bit expensive :P I like the first one you posted, its very much the truth. and i also like "In order to get a loan, you must first prove you dont need it". Funny ways the world works hey?

I would have to say not really. I am more of a optimistic and will always be. Murphy's law is more on the pessimistic side of the fence.
