    The fails listed here can fall into a number of categories, from mistakes due to inattention or particularly unwise decisions, all the way to such blatant bad luck that one should check for family curses. Either way, a very human reaction is to blame bad luck.

    No matter how rational a person is, there is still an overwhelming amount of belief in ideas of “good” and “bad” luck out there. As Chip Denman has said, "luck is probability taken personally." Instead of accepting that some days will just be bad, certain people start to assemble logical structures that would “explain” why something improbably unfortunate happened to them in particular.

    The psychological games behind the scenes vary from person to person. People more susceptible to gambling addiction might treat most random chances with the so-called gambler’s fallacy, where they believe that a string of bad luck has to be followed by good. This is why a person can continue to dump money into a losing game or investment long past any chance of recovering it.

    This is the only spider that terrifies me. Got bit while looking through our cord of wood for dry pieces. Ended up at the ER with probably the worst pain I've ever felt, but it didn't kill me just made me realize how terribly bad this little critter can be.

    Are you in a warm area? I used to see black widows in California. Saw a nest of babies hatch in our garage. hundreds of tiny baby black widows. But I've lived in WA state for most of the past 50 years and never seen one. We do have them but they must be much more rare up here - I am assuming because of the colder / damper climate.

    They are rare up here. I live in Portland, and there have been plenty seen and found in houses and she's and attics, there are not enough to make it a real worries. I honestly think they are gorgeous (please don't down votes me, I really di like spiders, I know it is weird) and I have never seen one in real life, and I want to see one so badly. All that being said. If this happened to me, I would be freaked out!

    Black widows are poisonous arachnids—animals that have a skeleton outside their body, a segmented body, and eight jointed legs. They are not insects. Their deadly poison is said to be 15 times stronger than rattlesnake venom.

    You don't want any chemicals inside the cabin; they can get absorbed by plastics, carpet, etc. and re-emitted an a hot day. Take the car to a body shop; they have huge ovens for automobiles to cure freshly applied pain. Black widows won't be able to survive those temperatures.

    What's a bug bomb? I assume it's something that releses chemichals that kills bugs but they seem to be gathered in one place in the pics? Maybe it lures bugs to it then "bombs" them when all the bugs in the vicinity are in one place? Or did this guy search and collect them for a poc after the fact?? Idk

    Bug bombs are in a spray can like container. Push the button at the top and is sprays a mist/fog of the bug killer into the enclosed space.

    In very extreme cases, when a person has a particular streak of bad or good luck, they start to attach significance to completely unrelated things that were happening at the same time. If a person wins at blackjack on two separate Tuesdays, they may now see Tuesday as their “lucky” day, causing them to behave more recklessly on this day, most likely losing them more money in the long run. Some people take this so far that they will only make major life decisions on “lucky days," which is probably the cause of a lot of "unlucky days" for others who need an answer now.

    Other people deny luck and instead believe that a supernatural force caused them to drop their phone down a drain or something similar. In a sense, religion actually removes the necessity to believe in luck, as misfortune can be chalked up to punishment from the divine, and “good” luck is a reward for doing something correctly. Carl Jung described this idea as deriving explanations from "a meaningful coincidence".

    It’s not all wistful thinking, however. If you believe in luck, this thought can function like a placebo, assisting with positive thinking. This can lower stress and make a person more hopeful, which allows for more mental resilience against negative events. Pessimism is by no means “more'' rational or unrealistic than optimism, and comes with none of the mental health benefits, besides a strange sense of superiority.

    If this all sounds too random, then there is at least some consistent, scientific evidence that by and large “Lucky people generate their own good fortune via four basic principles. They are skilled at creating and noticing chance opportunities, making lucky decisions by listening to their intuition, creating self-fulfilling prophecies via positive expectations, and adopting a resilient attitude that transforms bad luck into good,” according to a ten-year-long study.

    Some “good luck” rituals do even have some positive effects, for example, in some places, blowing left and right before crossing train tracks is considered important. This, naturally, also allows people to actually see if a train is coming, increasing the likelihood of not being hit. Walking under ladders is a classic example of a thing you should not do according to superstition, but it does perhaps also help one not get crushed by a ladder.

    In some places, certain numbers are seen as lucky, so people take extra steps to get “lucky” phone numbers, license plates, and even addresses. While it perhaps goes without saying, there is basically no evidence that any number, particularly one chosen randomly or by an urban planner, is more lucky than another, although one could see how a landlord with a “lucky” plot number would be quick to capitalize on this.

My sister has done exactly this, made a big meal and didn't bother telling everyone that she intended to have them join her and then she was insulted that they weren't there.

    Slide a note card or thin card board (like cereal box) under it. You'll lose a little but less messy than trying to flip it up right which then fizzes up immediately.

    Turning off the power makes absolutely no sense. I don’t care how much money you are trying to save or what your single house is going to do to the environment but this is dumb on multiple levels.

    Assuming this is their house and not the neighbour's. Your personal Homeowners Insurance, claim. They should pay for the damage and chase the neighbour.

    It appears you dodged a bullet. It overheated and expanded but you are lucky it did not start a fire. PSA - don't leave phones / etc on the charger for long periods. Better chargers (and sometimes the phone/tablet itself) have circuitry that stops the charging when the battery is full. Some cheap stuff does not and overcharging Lithium batteries can be dangerous. I used to not know that / be careless about it. Have since seen some videos / accounts of bad stuff so I'm more careful.

    Rhabdomyolysis (often called rhabdo) is a serious medical condition that can be fatal or result in permanent disability. Rhabdo occurs when damaged muscle tissue releases its proteins and electrolytes into the blood. These substances can damage the heart and kidneys and cause permanent disability or even death.

    Not really but --- crazy glue it back together so it sort of holds. Wait for one of the guests to break it and be all apologetic about it. Be a 'gracious' host and say it's okay and we'll work around it. (I wouldn't actually lie but it's fun to imagine messing with people)

    Why would they get in trouble for an accidental key break? Tell the boss, maintenance retrieves end, get new key made, if it's very important they might change the lock. Won't take that long. You didn't intend to break it.
