The Friday Rant! Vent your Frustration Here...

It's that time again, folks: The Friday Rant!  Take a look back through the week and pick those topics that have made you ill and dump them out in the comment section below.

Rules:  No name calling, personal or business like, and keep it clean!

My rant this week is pretty simple.  I want to find the man whose name was used in reference to Murphy's law and punch him in the nose.  As a matter of fact, it should be called "Ryan's Law" because it seems that the random stuff the law applies to always happens to me.  I can't seem to get away from it. For instance, when I'm in traffic and it's thick, the lane I'm in always, without fail, is the slow lane.  If I switch lanes, then the lane I was previously in starts to move while my current lane stops.  It's like I am cursed or doomed forever.

I could go on with countless examples, but you get the point.  Anyone that knows me understands that "If it could happen to anyone, it certainly will be Ryan."  That's just the way it is.

Ryan's Law is a South Carolina law which requires insurance companies to cover treatments for autism. In New York Ryan's Law mandates minimum punishments for automobile drivers who kill or seriously injures a pedestrian or bicyclist. So, it's already taken...

Yeah, but I'm sure you get my point. Random, party of 1?

That traffic thing happens to me every morning on 20. There's another one though, but I'm not sure what it's called. It's when you get into a line atthe grocery store, thinking you're in the shorter line, and then, someone pulls out about 2000 coupons, as you watch the line next to you fill up because it's moving so fast. Wonder what that one is called?
