In yesterday's blog I talked about the prelude to my birthday: stepping on a bee.

Today did not disappoint. I ate brunch out at a place similar to IHOP and the waitress knocked over a mug of coffee. Fortunately it wasn't that hot and I mostly dodged it...

Later, I was eating dinner at a pizza place with my friend before bowling. It's one of those places where they take your order, they give you a number, and you wait at your seat for the food. I ordered pizza so mine came out pretty quick, but my friend who ordered baked ziti was still waiting. A few minutes later I'm halfway done with my first slice and his food comes. As the employee puts the tray down on the table to begin unloading the contents, he dumps the large soda nearly into my friend's lap. He apologizes and suggests we move to another table while it gets cleaned up. I grab my uneaten slice of pizza and drink and place it on a nearby table. I turn around to see my half-eaten slice missing. After some confusion I notice the employee dumping it into the garbage. I ask him "what happened to my other slice?" and he says "oh it was just a crust." I say "oh I was still eating it" and he says "ah sorry I'll bring you a new one." It took a good 15-20 minutes for that to happen. Meanwhile my friend realizes after he relocated to a new table that the employee never gave him any silverware. After that's remedied we eventually get the heck out of there.

At bowling, in my first game I had a split every single time I bowled on lane 7. In other words, I had a split in the second frame, the fourth frame, the sixth frame, the eight frame, and the tenth frame. In most cases they were good balls and I was just unlucky. WTF? The 'air' was also broken on our particular set of lanes so all of our hands were a bit sweaty while we were bowling

Crazy day... I better just sit still and do nothing for the remaining 45 minutes or so. On the bright side my car insurance should start going down...

Doesn't gambler's fallacy actually suggest that every day has the same probability of being as crappy as this one if the events of one day have little effect (in theory) on the events of another?

Gambler's fallacy is like... you get heads 5 times in a row so the odds of getting tails next time are pretty big since the overall odds of heads/tails should approach 50%. Of course that's incorrect... each throw is still 50/50. What m0nion said makes sense since two bad days imply (incorrectly) that I need to make up for it with a couple of good days.

I think it's those schoolkids that are ruining your days. Big exams coming up.
Venture Capital is better off spent on lottery tickets rather than investing in E-Sports; you'll get a far better return. The difference is simple: Koreans are tryharding at the game, foreigners are tryharding in real-life.

But a coin toss isn't exactly 50/50, that's the idealisation. In reality there's the aerodynamics of the coin to consider, the strength of the toss and the air currents in the room. Maybe bad days do somehow make it more likely for your next days to be good
