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

My brother used to drive a rather lovely, spangly new Jaguar XJS. At one point, he had a small accident, and the car needed to go in for repair. They gave him a Mondeo as a courtesy car, which he was quite happy with. His high-maintenance wife, however, was less easily impressed, and complained loudly.
For the sake of a quiet life, my brother went back to the dealers and explained his dilemma. The very understanding dealer was kind enough to give him a brand new XJS from the forecourt to use as a courtesy car instead. He was happy, wife was happy. Wife decided she wanted to drive home.
On the way home, it was raining. Wife took the car around a roundabout. Car's brand new tyres weren't quite as well bedded in as old cars. Car promptly span out, fell off the roundabout, and ended up at the bottom of an embankment on its roof.
Wife didn't complain about the Mondeo for the rest of the week.
