Details 0 1 1949 An air force captain engineer named eddie murphy played a casual joke on one of his unfortunate colleagues: "If something is likely to be done badly, it will be even worse if he is allowed to do it."

At first, a harmless joke didn't mean anything, just said the helplessness brought by bad luck.

Second, everything will take longer than you expected;

Third, things that can go wrong will always go wrong;

If you are worried about something happening, it is more likely to happen.
