What does Murphy's law mean

Murphy's law means that if there are two or more ways to do something, and one of them will lead to disaster, someone will make this choice. If things are likely to go bad, no matter how small the possibility is, it will always happen.

According to Murphy's law, we can deduce:

(1) Nothing is as simple as it seems;

(2) Everything will take longer than expected;

(3) Things that can go wrong will always go wrong;

(4) If you are worried that something will happen, it is more likely to happen.

Extended data:

Murphy's law originated in the United States and is said to have occurred in 1949. An engineer named Murphy is an air force captain. He thinks that one of his colleagues is unlucky, and casually said a joke: "If something is likely to screw up, let him do it, and things will screw up." The joke quickly spread in America and all over the world.

In the process of communication, this joke gradually lost its original limitations and evolved into various forms. The most popular form is: "If a bad thing is possible, no matter how impossible it is, it will always happen and cause the greatest possible loss."
