Murphy's Law Relatives


Soooooooo... I was sitting in the Doctors waiting room getting ready to be signed in for an appointment and registered... you know, where they ask you a whole bunch of random questions either about things that make you think "Wait, should I really be telling this to a complete stranger? Even if she IS a nurse?" or seem irrelevant: "What's your name/ phone number/address/Social security number/billing account/what is your problem/why are you here/what was your passing grade in school when you were 9 years of age/who invented the atomic bomb/what year was Shakespeare born in/what is the point of life/where do you see yourself in 10 years/what way do you think would be best to die so that we might be able to arrange it for you, for your best convenience"............. so I exaggerate just a small bit. Whatever. ANYWAY, I was sitting in the waiting room and I happened to glance up at the wall and I saw an "article" posted there, obviously to make others smile and feel better. Mind you, that is why you are going to see the Doctor in the first place, to feel better, but perhaps the reason that they post things on the wall is to make you feel a bit better about paying money to see someone whose office plants have died and calls their job "the practice". I don't know. Moving on.... the article was about Murphy's Law and things related to it. I thought that it was hysterical and wanted to share it on my blog... and I would have done so last week, but I couldn't find it. You want to know why? Because I, Annagram, near-genius, forgot the title of the article and had to spend literally hours searching for it. Thanks though to my super-duper best friend teaching me how to search Google like a Pro (HA!!), I finally found it! So, in case you haven't already guessed, I am going to post the bit of the article that I liked, "Murphy's Law Relatives":


Murphy's Law Relatives:

Law of Mechanical Repair - As soon as your hands are coated with grease, your nose will begin to itch and you'll have to pee.

Law of Gravity - Any tool, when dropped, will roll to the least accessible corner.

Law of the Result - When you try to prove to someone that a machine won't work, it will.

Law of Probability - The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of your error.

Law of Bio-Mechanics - The severity of the itch is inversely proportional to the ability to reach it.

Law of Random Numbers - If you dial a wrong number, you never get a busy signal and someone always answers.

Law of the Alibi - If you tell the boss that you were late for work because you had a flat tire, the very next morning you will have a flat tire.

Variation Law - If you change traffic lanes, the one you were in will always move faster than the one you are in now (works every time).

Law of the Bath - When the body is fully immersed in water, the telephone rings.

Law of Close Encounters - The probability of meeting someone you know increases dramatically when you are with someone you don't want to be seen with.

Law of the Theater - At any event, the people whose seats are furthest from the aisle will arrive last.

The Starbucks Law - As soon as you sit down to a cup of hot coffee, your boss will ask you to do something which will last until the coffee is cold.

Law of Lockers - If there are only two people in a locker room, they will have adjacent lockers.

Law of Physical Surfaces - The chances of an open-faced jam sandwich landing face down on a floor covering are directly correlated to the newness and cost of the carpet/rug.

Law of Logical Argument - Anything is possible if you don't know what you are talking about.

Law of Physical Appearance - If the shoe fits, it's ugly.

Law of Public Speaking - A closed mouth gathers no feet.

Law of Commercial Marketing Strategy - As soon as you find a product that you really like, they will stop making it.

Doctor's Law - If you don't feel well, make an appointment to go to the doctor, by the time you get there you'll feel better. Don't make an appointment and you'll stay sick.

Good Food Law - The better something tastes, the greater the probability that it's bad for you.



I would like to let you all know that next Tuesday I will most likely not be blogging, I will be away for the week, so unless I am miraculously able to find both a computer as well as well enough time, I will not be blogging!

Catch yah later!

My Top 7 Most Favorite YouTube Subscriptions

Okay, so, along with Facebook and Yahoo... I must admit that I have one other website weakness: YouTube. YouTube is the best place ever for watching short videos and clips. Seriously. I used to be addicted to that site, I would spend lots of time there!, but then I got busy and finally learned to get a life. It's an awesome place though. I subscribe to a lot of stuff on there, or did, until I deleted a lot of my subscriptions. It got a bit annoying, having all these subscriptions, having to watch them all the time. Or not as much as "annoying" as "time-consuming". Anyway, today I have decided to blog about my favorite YouTube people, now that I think I have the links working again (*crossing fingers*)!I apologize for being so brief and dry, I am typing on a time schedule today! =( In alphabetical order, ladies and gentlemen, here they are:
Boburnham. Boburnham is a musical genius! He writes a whole bunch of songs with the most hilarious lyrics ever imagined. Not silly, just funny. He has a self-titled CD/DVD coming out now, I hope to get it! My favorite video of his is "Love is..." (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Fg-dQxQOEs), which is a song that has no point really, or makes no sense. But it's still so funny. The link I'm going to post though is "Welcome to YouTube", which if you don't watch YouTube, you're not going to get!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0quDfpfRUQ
Chrisontv88. Why do I like Chris....... hmm, I don't know really, maybe because he is funny, refreshing, creative and overall, just so flat-out cute? Seriously... he's adorable. I asked him to marry me, he said "Sure, why not?". Ha, I'm just kidding. Well actually, no, I'm not. But I was then. Shame I was only joking........ *Sigh* ANYWAY, my favorite video you wouldn't understand because he was directing it at a major jerk on YouTube who seems to hate everyone (I think he does, really... I've never seen him say a single nice thing the whole time I've been on there)... but he was so sarcastic, which is my favorite type of humor ever. Along with people being dry in humor, but whatever. This is a link to one of his videos where he is just so adorable...... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1VT11HLFJc
Communitychannel. Nat (the one who vlogs on this channel) is the most interesting person ever. If I were ever to vlog, I would do it just like how she does. I think she's my favorite subscription, all in all........ I think. I don't know, I can't decide! This is one of her average vlogs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwm45MHV2jM
DoctorBenji. I KNOW this guy actually, well, not "know him" know him, I've spoken to him a few times though... before he became so funny. He's recently started doing stand-up comedy, and I am totally loving it, he's so funny! This is my favorite video of him, I watch it all the time, it's hysterical: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D26y36F-hdM
ImprovEverywhere. I like this channel because it is so completely random. They take large groups of people and do the most random things, just to get people to think or to laugh... personally, I would join the group just to see people's reactions to it. Like one time, they all rode the trains without any pants on... can you imagine (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9La40WwO-lU)? My favorite (for some odd reason that I have no idea) is the Frozen Grand Central one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwMj3PJDxuo
Liamkylesullivan. The Liam Show!! I don't fun this guy that funny much anymore... I really only subscribe to him because he did the Shoes song........ I sing this song all the time, especially when I go shoe shopping. The lyrics are messed up, but whatever. (I think you have too many shoes... Shut up!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HjIljJd-o0
Ramseybrotherspictures. OMG, THIS ONE IS MY FAVORITE. Seriously, my favorite, favorite, favorite. Forget the community channel, forget I said anything, these guys are the BEST!! They only have 7 videos as of now, and it's not fair.... it's just not fair. I am posting my 3 favorite videos of theirs, simply because I cannot choose one! AND YOU HAVE TO WATCH THEM. You HAVE to. HAVE, HAVE, HAVE to. So said I.... and you have to do what I say. The Whitemans College Admissions Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFktoH-oHkU, How the South Was Lost: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4Y7mGCyrbg, and The Interrogator: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYEZjSiZeLI.
Did you watch them?
Hmm? Did yah? Did yah?
Well you had better have.
What is YOUR favorite YouTube subscription? Leave a comment!
Till next week, Annagram

Pointless Babble


In case you haven't noticed, I am having some issues with Blogger. I am quite annoyed with it at present, it won't let me choose the font of which I want to use! All of my choices that I once had are now gone. Anyway, I just want to let you know that if this blog turns out funny, it is because of that. Today's blog shall be a bit different than my past blogs, because this time I don't have an actual subject. No, I promise that this won't be one of those "This is what I did today" blogs, because I first of all think that that is stupid to blog about... sure my family and such wants to read about it, but I am pretty sure that the public really doesn't care about Grandma's new garden and the A+ that Johnny got on his project at school. But I have said that before! Anyway, I shall keep to my promise, none of that babble today, nor ever! Today's blog is going to be what I call "pointless babble". The only person who probably really knows what this means is Kev, so perhaps I shall explain - not that I really need to, since you will be reading it in a moment (or technically you already are, but whatever). Pointless babble is me saying whatever is on my mind, usually the most random thing ever, and then I babble on about it for a while before making another random subject change. Kind of like Nat on Youtube... have you ever watched her posts? I love her! if you haven't, you have to check out her channel on YouTube. Her channel name is "communitychannel". Her and Shane Dawson (Channel: ShaneDawsonTV) are my favorite things to subscribe to on YouTube. They make YouTube a happier place I think! Maybe that is what I shall blog about next... YouTube. Or maybe not... if Blogger isn't going to let the links work, then I don't know whether it would be a good idea or not... I wouldn't want to have to post a link and have it not work! That would annoy me to no end. Anyway, back to my pointless babble. I am currently thinking about something that annoys me... do you want to take a guess at what it is?
Mullets. Mullets bother me so much! Why anyone would ever want to wear them? They look so completely retarded. Not to mention the fact that it makes you look like you have mange. I thought that fads were supposed to die off after a while, right? This one should die... it's frightening. And yet, it seems to Be coming back. Why do people like them so? I don't understand. It's uneven, it's ridiculous... it looks unclean. *Shudder*
On to my next random thing........ Mothers Day. To be completely honest with you, I had completely forgotten about mothers Day until i was browsing the Web two nights ago and saw the "What are you doing for Mothers Day?" question. I seriously cannot believe that I forgot it... can you imagine! How terrible. I still have no idea what to do for Mothers Day... any suggestions? My mother is no help at all... she says that she wants housework done. Of course I shall do that!... but what else? I am at a loss, i have no idea what to do. Any ideas?
My pointless babble didn't go very well didn't go very far this time sadly, I guess I shan't do this one again! I think I am going to end this now and get ready to chat with my Bestest friend, who just happens to be on VACATION(!!!!!) this week... how I have missed him so. He's away during the week, and I miss him. =( Anyway, I will catch you guys later, and with an actual blog topic next time!
