When you don't honestly believe something to be the case, but wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be true.
My friend was so crazy, I half expected him to actually jump off the water tower into a tub of jello when the radio station offered him $10.

The universal truth that if you groom yourself in preparation for an expected hook-up, the hook-up will not occur immediately after. It only occurs when you haven't prepared yourself properly. Usually applicable to females.
For example, a girl shaves her legs in preparation for an expected hook-up but then the guy tells her he can't hang out that night.

She tells her roommate "Damn, I should've known I wouldn't get any tonight; its the Law of Expectation."

A novel written by Charles Dickens in weekly parts from December 1860 to August 1861. Great Expectations is the story about Pip, a selfish, whiny teenager that grows up into a "gentleman." This is a novel assigned to many high school students to read, and probably the most boring book in existence. My advice, don't waste your time, cliffs notes work.
1) Thanks, Charles Dickens, for wasting two months of my life with your crappy book, Great Expectations.

2) I would call Bernadette, but she is reading that god-awful book Great Expectations.
