Murphy's Traffic Law

The simple fact of reality which states that whenever one is in a hurry, one or more of the following effects are experienced when driving a car:

-Chance of encountering consecutive red lights is increased.

-When in an intersection, chance of having a left turn larry in your line is increased.

-Chance of getting stuck behind an extremely conservative driver or a naturally slower vehicle is greatly increased.

Basically, the Murphy's Law of driving. If you need to get their fast, you're going to get their less quickly.
Boss - You're late.

Flunky - Sorry. 6 red lights in a row, got stuck behind an 18-wheeler, and it seemed like everyone just wanted to turn left today.

Crony - Murphy's Traffic Law. Respect.

Palin-drome

Coined by Jon Stewart and a keystone of the Sarah Palin arsenal, this is a political technique in which one complains about "unfair" assertions and criticism made by political opponents, but then proceeds to criticize said opponents in the same, allegedly "unfair" manner.

Also known as the "anchorage steamer" and the "caribou ball-swivel."

See also, hypocrisy.
Sarah Palin - We've been falsely accused of being accessory to murder. This persecution is reprehensible. Blood libel...whatever that means...they're doing it.

Sarah Palin - But, y'know, this shooter may have even been a leftist. People on the left clearly do not like my message and are intent on bringing America to its knees.

Sarah Palin - In fact, if they didn't have their double standards, the left wouldn't have any standards!

Jon Stewart - Why don't we call that an anchorage steamer...or no wait...a PALIN-DROME!
