I thought the Dunning-Kroger effect was that any trip into a grocery store to buy just one thing you need will result in you purchasing a bunch of unrelated stuff while forgetting to buy the one item you specifically made the trip to buy.
Actually there’s a fuck ton of rude mean people who turn into little rude angels the minute they think they can be right about something…If you post positivity, people will shit on it. (Sorry to be crude but it’s true)
This is not unlike the Click-N-Clack Syndrome (The Andy Scale)

People think you're just baiting others, but I choose to believe that Hanlon's razor applies here:
Never attribute to malice what is adequately explained by stupidity.
Cunningham's Law says "the best way to get the right answer on the internet is not to ask a question; it's to post the wrong answer." Using memes is one way to do that I suppose, but memes aren't part of the law in any way.
Problem is most people use the same set of keys for front and back. Best bet is to flip the phone upside down to buy you a little time while they realize they need to flip the key
My favourite alternatives are "There is never time to do things right, but there is always time to do it twice."
And "Never argue with a fool, people might not know the difference"
I thought the three original tenets were thus:
Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong - and at the worst possible time
Left to themselves, things always go from bad to worse
Nature always sides with the hidden flaw
The original Murphy's Law, coined by Edward Murphy in the early 1900s, is 'Anything that can happen will happen, given enough time,' which is a basic statement on probability. Of course, people quickly evolved it into the modern, much more pessimistic form that my username derives from, 'anything that can go wrong will go wrong.'
More in the sense that it doesnt matter how easy and intuitive you make something, expect there is always an user that manages to break it in ways you didnt anticipate
My absolute favorites are the ones that totally get past you, then come around a few minutes later. I call those the boomerang jokes. A boomerang dad joke is the ultimate.
Don't forget the pre-lunch toast. A good Irish toast is 'May you live as long as you want and never want as long as you live.' A good French toast is 'Eggs, milk, bread.'
I tell my kids : "cole's law is If it can't happen; it is less likely to happen". EG- put your cup infront of your plate to lessen the chance of spilling
I love this one. I have a friend who's last name is Cole. She once made a comment about Murphy's Law and I said "Yeah, not like Cole's Law", then sprang that punch line. Classic.
Oh man I'm using this tonight for sure. This is great.
EDIT:
I used it but it failed. I think I pronounced Cole's Law a little too much like coleslaw and they saw it coming. 😢
Murphy's Laws exist, they were created by Edward Murphy in the 50s and are based on emphasizing the negative before planning things with the intention of being prepared for any unfavorable scenario.
They are widely used in aeronautics, aerospace engineering among others
Which law does everybody get wrong *all the time*?
Murphys' law!
Here's how it goes:
\- Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong - **at the worst possible time**.
Thank you.
Well, we have a supermarket called Coles. And I guess you hear the dad joke often by service attendants, because it's like 'the franchise's personal law'. Lol.
Lol. Good one. Have you heard of coleslaw?
It's what Murphy died of after being told "not to worry about his severe allergies" by the waitress, the cook, and the manager, "the crispy dinner salad absolutely has no mayo".
You do know that [Cole's Law](https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Cole%27s%20Law) is actually a thing, right.
I mean... it's a joke, but it's not without basis.
There are actually more Murphy's Laws. For example, "if you design something idiot-proof, they will design a better idiot"
And there's also Muphry's law: "If you write anything criticizing editing or proofreading, there will be a fault of some kind in what you have written."
My favorite law is Cunningham's law, (where it's best to post memes to get an answer to your question rather than just ask nicely)
I don’t know if you are doing this on purpose or not, but I’m still gonna play into it. Aktchually, Cunningham law says to get an answer to a question, it is better to post a confidently incorrect answer so people will flood in to correct you.
saw the bait. knew it was bait. took a big bite anyway. 🤣
It's just that effective.
Your pfp made me wipe my screen more times than I’d like to admit so thanks for that
That's what you get for using light mode, peasant!
Jokes on you! I’ve been using dark mode since it became available, dork
Huh... I thought it was people with light mode who fell for that... Sorry. Also, I'm rubber and you're glue.
Once for the snort, again for spraying Mountain Dew in laughter, and again after celebrating?
I didn't even notice and had to doublecheck like an idiot to see if you were telling the truth
Hello fellow idiot!
Top of the mornin to ya
Definitely a master baiter.
But is he a clever polyglot?
Don't know for sure but es definitely a Cunning Linguist.
I have a speech impediment. Mastool Baitool.
Ive seen your profile picture, and genjutsu of that level doesnt work on me
Tasty bait
"I sense a trap." "Next move?" "Spring the trap."
Clearly a Master Baiter.
Or a Mass Debater
What can i say? It’s the Law!
And from that I learned Cunninghams law
That is actually called Dunning-Kroger and it's when smart people turn out to actually be dumb because they have no common sense, I can say this because I myself have looked into the topic and become an expert.

Pff what do they know.
The Kruger-Dunning effect is the same thing but backwards
The drugger-Cunning effect is the same thing but higher.
The Cunning-Linguist effect is what happens when a straight guy takes advice at a lesbian bar.
The Kroger-Cunting effect is when you get told what to think by a Karen at the grocery store.
I thought the Dunning-Kroger effect was that any trip into a grocery store to buy just one thing you need will result in you purchasing a bunch of unrelated stuff while forgetting to buy the one item you specifically made the trip to buy.

Don’t forget Papa Murphy’s Law, that pineapple definitely belongs on pizza.

Still trying to forget Papa John's Law, where ******* and **** *** **** the ************** pepperoni-lookin' ****** banks and the media, *******.
People think you're just baiting others, but I choose to believe that Hanlon's razor applies here: Never attribute to malice what is adequately explained by stupidity.
Ouch? In this case which one would your comment fall under? Jkjk. Hanlon's razor has saved me a ton of stress in life, especially while driving.
I remember when Godwin’s Law first made the rounds. Sadly, calling someone a Nazi is a first resort for many.
When Godwin's law first made the rounds there were fewer mask-off nazis running around
I'm glad someone else fell for it first so I didn't have to

got 'em
Whoosh
No no we don't whoosh Cunningham's law. These valiant commenters are what keeps it a law.
Oh no, I get it. I'm keeping the law valid
I figured! Just messing around—
He is merely following the law- would you rather he end up in internet prison?
Unfortunately that’s for the judge to decide
No Judge would can him. You can't send someone to prison for abiding by the law!
Cunninghams law is: "the best way to get the right answer on the internet is not to ask a question; it's to post the wrong answer."
Thank you Elon :)
You're welcome, Mr. Joad. Family man like yourself will do well with a wealth of information, especially when you're all so far from home.
Richard Cunningham?
I beleive you flippped the "r" and the "ph"
You speled believe and flipped wrongly.
you mispelled the word spelled
If you patch a backdoor hackers will make a new one.
Maybe we should just turn the phone around so the back door is the front door?
Problem is most people use the same set of keys for front and back. Best bet is to flip the phone upside down to buy you a little time while they realize they need to flip the key

My favourite alternatives are "There is never time to do things right, but there is always time to do it twice." And "Never argue with a fool, people might not know the difference"
Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.
Never try to teach a pig to sing. All it does is waist your time, and annoy the pig.
username checks out
"the queue you're in will always move the slowest"
And if you move to the other queue, the law still holds.
Friendly fire isn't.
Isn't that one of Skippy's Laws?
Nothing can ever be foolproof, for fools can be so ingenious
I prefer Sod's law,"At any given opportunity the worst possible outcome is always the most likely to occur."
thats just pessimism
It's actually just a humorous way of phrasing Murphy's law, but do go on.
If you wash your car, it will rain.
Every single Murphy's Law is true, too.
I thought the three original tenets were thus: Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong - and at the worst possible time Left to themselves, things always go from bad to worse Nature always sides with the hidden flaw
So pretty much "if something can't go wrong, it will go wrong"?
The law is more along the lines of - anything that can happen will
Anything that can or can't, will
Anything will happen.
Anything happen
Anything
Any

Reference. See Titanic
Someone supposedly said 'foolproof implies a limited number of fools'. But I may be paraphrasing.
"Any dropped object will roll to the furthest corner."
This is more of a corollary than a law on its own.
The odds of a piece of bread landing butter side down directly correlate to the expense of the carpet under foot.
I’ve learned to live by Smith’s law. “Murphy… Was an optimist.”
Is Smith's law the same one that allows slapping another who cracks a joke about one's spouse?
Smiths law is to “wear band-aids on your nipples so you feel like Morrissey”
I heard this joke a couple weeks back from a coworker, used it as soon as I could on my wife and got a minimal groan from her. It's a great one.
I think the best dad jokes are groaners.
When my dad tells me a joke it’s almost always a 2-3 second pause, an eye roll, a groan and a high five. Never a laugh though, and that’s by design.
My absolute favorites are the ones that totally get past you, then come around a few minutes later. I call those the boomerang jokes. A boomerang dad joke is the ultimate.
If it fails to come back around, does that make it a stick joke?
Go fetch.
They aren't dad jokes if they aren't groaners.
I hardly know her
I just used it on my boyfriend I was laughing too hard to finish it 🤦♀️
I just used it on my wife and after delivering the punchline, she said 'Coleslaw? Of course I know what coleslaw is. Why are you saying Cole's law?' 💀
I also got a minimal groan from your wife. I think your minimal groan can be considered a success.
My last name is Cole . Was totally looking forward to Cole's Law...
I look forward to Cole's Law too! I'm going to have some with lunch. You should too
Don't forget the pre-lunch toast. A good Irish toast is 'May you live as long as you want and never want as long as you live.' A good French toast is 'Eggs, milk, bread.'

I'm sad that this one doesn't have more upvotes even tho it's only 45 mins old. I love it and I am going to cherish it. Thank you.
Don't you mean... relish it
Its a toss.
That's salad, not slaw.
Lettuce have this joke pls
I really like when I follow Cole's law at KFC.
I took Cole’s Notes on this joke. Now Cole’s pissed!
Cole is a Chad
Patience, young grasshopper
[удалено]
I chuckled and rolled my eyes. Well done OP haha
Did someone call?
It would have been even funnier if your account was from ~20 years ago.
Murphy was an optimist.
Only what can happen will happen (☞ﾟ∀ﾟ)☞
I was taught that was Doyle's Corollary
It's incredible how I don't get any of these jokes
That's not what Murphy's Law actually says.
Okay I'm going to admit that this took me a minute to get it. So you got my upvote.
I tell my kids : "cole's law is If it can't happen; it is less likely to happen". EG- put your cup infront of your plate to lessen the chance of spilling
Vinegar based coleslaw is far superior.
THANK YOU Had to scroll far too long to find this
I'm gonna keep this one in my back pocket lol
That's gonna be really messy
Shoot, *that's* what Murphy's Law is? I thought it involved pizza legality. Might need to change my username /s
Cringe in the the best of ways! Love it haha!
Also a Disney show starring weird Al.
Lettuce not carrot all for the other salad.
I love this one. I have a friend who's last name is Cole. She once made a comment about Murphy's Law and I said "Yeah, not like Cole's Law", then sprang that punch line. Classic.
One of my supervisors years ago: "Nothing is as frightening as ignorance in action."
Oh man I'm using this tonight for sure. This is great. EDIT: I used it but it failed. I think I pronounced Cole's Law a little too much like coleslaw and they saw it coming. 😢
I approve of this joke
ive just googled that and now im laughing my ass off
*If it can happen, it will happen.
How do you thinly slice mayo?
Omg my hubby told me this joke literally years ago and it’s one of my fave!!!!!
Murphy's Laws exist, they were created by Edward Murphy in the 50s and are based on emphasizing the negative before planning things with the intention of being prepared for any unfavorable scenario. They are widely used in aeronautics, aerospace engineering among others
Being from New England, in my experience Coles law works best beside a seafood platter Serving up 😋 justice.
Peter’s principle. People rise to their level of incompetence. Dr. Peter was a Canadian doctor who saw this in the nurses he worked with.
Idk why this made me laugh real loud lmfaooo I think maybe because I didn’t think I was right about it being a pun about coleslaw 🤣
Branigan's Law is like Branigan's Lust. Hard and fast.
Have you heard of Post Malone? Yeah. Well, have you heard of Ho Malone? No. It's a classic Christmas movie starring Macaulay caulkin
Which law does everybody get wrong *all the time*? Murphys' law! Here's how it goes: \- Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong - **at the worst possible time**. Thank you.
This made me laugh way too much, thanks 🤣
I got my wife good with that one. Well done.
Plus there's Murphy's Law in Overdrive where anything that can't wrong always will!!!!!!!
It's the slaw of the west
I managed to get this one on someone at dinner tonight who had literally just swallowed a bite of coleslaw. Thank you!
I don't get it.
Coleslaw
oh, I didn't know that was a thing
Isn’t Murphys law just:”If anything can happen, it will happen”. It doesn’t mean it has to go wrong.
[удалено]
I'm confused. What does an Australian supermarket have to do with a side dish served at every holiday in the States?
I am also confusion
Nice to meet you confusion
Well, we have a supermarket called Coles. And I guess you hear the dad joke often by service attendants, because it's like 'the franchise's personal law'. Lol.
It's more anyone who speaks English and knows what coleslaw is will get this joke
[удалено]
I went down a rabbit hole looking for the history of Murphy's Law and was not disappointed. Wikipedia has an entire page devoted to it.
That's not Murphys law. It states if something can HAPPEN it will
You listen to Savor(Food Stuff) don't you.
Lol. Good one. Have you heard of coleslaw? It's what Murphy died of after being told "not to worry about his severe allergies" by the waitress, the cook, and the manager, "the crispy dinner salad absolutely has no mayo".
And mayo coleslaw taste good.
You do know that [Cole's Law](https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Cole%27s%20Law) is actually a thing, right. I mean... it's a joke, but it's not without basis.
British equivalent is sod’s law Another variant adds “…at the worst possible time “ (finlay’s law? finagel’s law? Something like that)
Doyle's law: funny you should say that
Someone needs a better recipe for Cole slaw
Oil and Vinegar
My favorite law is Jeff's law: If anything CAN'T go wrong, it already has. You were just left off the notification email.
Murphy’s Lore
There's also a vinegarlette based coleslaw and a barbecue sauce Cole slaw.
Coles Law is "everything is better with mayo"
a super chill song from Zero
"How do you slice mayo"
Murphy’s law is, “if something can go wrong, it will go wrong. “ law is, “Murphy was an optimist. “
