Karma
Sue Denham writes, "I once slipped out of work two hours early without the boss noticing. In my hurry to make the most of this petty victory, I knocked myself out on the car door and spent the rest of the day semi-conscious, bowking rich brown vomit over my one and only suit."
Have you been visited by the forces of Karma, or watched it happen to other people?
Thanks to Pooflake for the suggestion

Actually I have a useful thing to add to this:
Ever wondered why some countries such as Mexico, Italy, Brazil etc are well known for thier petty street crimes? Well, it's the Catholic church y'see. You can commit whatever crimes you like if you can go off to confession and have the slate wiped clean.
However, in buddhist countries such as Thailand, you are much less likely to have your wallet nicked, despite lower standards of living, because buddhists are afraid that the bad karma will come back on them.
Fact me hard!

I thought
that was because in Thailand you can get around 20 years in prison for selling weed. Tad strict, no?

Doesn't a drug conviction in Thailand mean death?
and karma wasn't going to stop the guy reaching into the pocket of another sleeping thai, until we all beat on the windows of the bus, woke him up, and watched him beat the shit out of the pickpocket.
