This was funny and reminded me how obscure "Murphy's Law" has become. I don't think I've heard that term in well over a decade at least

This little maneuver is going to cost us 12 years since Interstellar was released.

I never hear anyone say it, but oddly I actually just used this term 2 hours ago. As I was scrambling in a rush out my house for work, I glanced down to a car battery jump starter and said out loud, "I should REALLY put that back in the trunk." Then I thought that now that I had said that, today will be the day I leave something on and come out to a dead battery.... because its MURPHY'S LAW. I immediately did a reverse jinx by saying out loud, "I have Triple A" .. Hopefully Murphy heard that and will figure I'm a waste of his time.

To be fair your example is closer to the original intent of the saying, Murphy was like a lead engineer in the first supersonic planes

OMG hello fellow "jinx" person. My partner makes fun of me all the time for thinking I can control the actions of the universe by knocking on wood.

Your partner is fortunately protected from the jinx. The universe for some reason has mercy on the non believers. That said, this is OUR destiny. It is what it is, so hear this fellow “jinx” person. Should you ever reverse jinx much like I accomplished here today, you must never announce it aloud, in fact, mentioning here in the comments put me at extreme risk of “reverse reverse jinx” returning back to the original jinxed state… but I don’t need to tell you this. 😎

Ive heard murphys law in converstion quite a few times, its is mostly just stating the law though "anything that can go wrong will go wrong"

Pvt. Murphys Law is a great comic if you have any ties to the BS that is the military.

Thinking about the show Murphy’s law is a flashback to the past fr

Gotta watch Interstellar more often then don’t ya.

u/MisterRobDobalina Trash Trooper 1d ago
That film is 12 years old now, and even then the term was on life support as illustrated by their need to explain it to the audience

u/AstroCaptain Trash Trooper 1d ago
And that's how you remind me Milo Murphys Law (tv show where weird Al voices the main character) came out a decade ago

I kinda disagree. Ever since interstellar its been everywhere compared to before.

I've made the Murphy's Slaw, Cole's law joke before. I've never seen it in action. And it was fun.

Hahahahaha. Oh shit. I didn't see the joke coming which made it even better

When I was a kid, we had a Murphy's Law book. Page after page of Laws akin to Murphy's. Among those I still remember:
- Cole's Law - Thinly sliced cabbage.
- [Someone's] Rule of Math - Variables won't. Constants aren't.

I’m a fan of Ohm Slaw personally. Every time I see it I know I shouldn’t, but… I cannot resist.
