Murphy's Law of Getting Comfortable

"You can struggle for hours to get bearably comfortable --- i.e., warm enough, free of aches, etc. --- but then just as soon as you actually DO succeed in getting comfortably 'settled in' at long last, something unavoidable will come up dat will force you to relinquish said comfy position to go and tackle some disagreeable physical activity which will cause you to get chilly again, experience more bodily pain, etc."
Two "sister" examples of Murphy's Law of Getting Comfortable would be "Murphy's Law of Falling Asleep" (i.e., you can struggle for half the night or more to fall asleep, but then immediately after you finally drift off, someone or something comes along to wake you up again) and "Murphy's Law of Personal Comfort" (i.e., however comfortable you become will be in direct inverse proportion to da comfort of others in your vicinity; for example, da nearer you sit to a heater/air-conditioning duct, da more you will block da flow of said "moderated" air, and so while YOU YOURSELF may indeed feel more-tolerably warmer/cooler, EVERYONE ELSE in da room will feel even more uncomfortable than you would have if you'd sat a more-reasonable distance from said climate-control orifice. Or if you recline your seat on a public-transportation vehicle, said tilted-backwards back-rest will encroach on da extremely-limited "personal space" in front of da passenger seated behind you).

Slerf's Law

Slerf's Law is the idea that the most retarded outcome is the most likely.

Coined by Twitter user 0x_charlemagne, the origin of the name lies in a retarded meme coin dev named Slerf, who accidentally burned 53 thousand Solana trying to launch a meme coin called Slerf.
I thought I would make millions on this meme coin; instead, the stupid dev burned the entire supply. I should have seen it coming because of Slerf's law.

Sister-in-law

The ultra important, high falutin, and just all around annoying sister of your spouse. She will not be at your wedding because she has more important things to do, and if by chance she shows up, she'll ruin it. She's your mother-in-law's teammate and soldier.
The ideal sister-in-law is one that resides six feet below the ground in a cemetery, right next to the ideal mother-in-law.
