Laws of the Natural Universe

[Eden]

I have one to add:
The law of red lights and bikes: Pulling your water bottle out of the cage to have a drink at a red light will cause the light to become green- just as you manage to start to take a drink.

try it sometime - this always works with the more finicky lights....

YES! The red light and bike law. Happened to me yesterday too! ARGH!

[slinkedog]

Yes, that one definitely needs to be added!! I have experienced it myself.

Those are all absolute facts. Here's one more:

The Law of the Doctor's Office: By the time you get to your doctor's appointment, your symptoms will no longer be observable. Corollary: The next day, or possibly even later that afternoon, the symptoms will return.

OMG... those are hysterical... and somehow PAINFULLY true!

The LBS Peter Principal: By 2 pm, every tool in the shop will be in someone's pocket.

Then you have two choices: (1) if you can see the tool you want, lift it directly from the appropriate pocket (however, fishing expeditions are not allowed), or (2) declare loudly "We've reached the Peter Principal. Everyone empty your pockets." It used to really make some of the guys jump when I would lift a tool right out of their pockets. But no one ever lifted tools from my pockets.
