It looks like "The Conservation of Bustedness" came from Usenet.

But doesn't entropy mean that the amount of Bustedness in the universe keeps increasing?

Hell, I might as well quit.  I can't win!

Ed,

I can't remember where I ran across it, but a fellow preached a principle
he called "The Conservation of Bustedness". He posited that you can't have
everything working all at once: if you fix the counter, the generator
breaks; if you fix the generator, the dishwasher goes on the fritz; fix the
dishwasher, and the car won't start - you get the picture... ;-)

My money's on the 'bad luck comes in threes' legend.  I had good luck
fixing the DTS-2077 so I had to pay for it with 3 bad things.  How's that
for unscientific thinking?  :)

OK I don't get it. When I search for a 2077 I get some online game. Now it
makes sense that thats a time sink but generally nothing that will break a
tooth.
