What is Murphy's Law and do you believe in Murphy's Law?

Asked by PoiPoi (274points) June 18th, 2008

The only thing I know is that Murphy’s Law has a phrase that explains the meaning of it: “Anything that goes wrong, will go wrong.” But really what is it? Is it a theory, a type of philosophy, an idiom, a proverb, or is it really a law? Is it actually named after a guy called Murphy? And do you believe the principles of Murphy’s Law makes sense to real life experience?
