SO!!! On the topic of random sh-tuff... One day Thought I proved Murphy Law but I didn't. Now I'm going to make a revision of the laws in a way that corresponds with being not incorrect. Here they ( there is multiple ) are:
Control: Whatever can go wrong will go wrong
Revised Rule 1. What can happen will happen
R.R. 1 vice-versa. What will happen can happen
R.R. 1 opposite. What can't happen won't happen
R.R. 1 vice-versa AND opposite. What won't happen can't happen
Revised Rule 2. What can and can't happen will and won't happen
R.R. 2 vice-versa. What will and won't happen can and can't happen
I decided to do a revision because I was partially correct when proving Murphy's law, partial because it only worked in deterministic universes, not a universe with quantum mechanics or like multiverses ( IDK much about universes ).Basically, the revision makes the laws true when correspondent to the R.R. 2 because it allows for events to can and can't or will and won't happen unlike in deterministic universes.

Please ask questions or comment.
Edit: R.R. 2 is new, not revised, or at least i think maybe it is revised
Hmm, proving it is as simple as multiplying 0.999999 by itself 1000000000000 times. Should be near zero.
Kinda. The way I proved it was finding out what would make it false ( For explanation sake ( and this is in a deterministic universe ): to make "whatever can happen will happen" false, something has to be able to "can happen" but in the end won't or can't, which doesn't make sense, how can something that can happen not happen if only the thing that can happen is whats happening in a deterministic universe? Of course, this only works for deterministic universes, not universes that are multiverse or have unpredictable events. That is because in a multi/quantum/idk universe something can "can" and "can't" happen at the same time, so it "will" and "won't". It is because of this little thing that occurs in non-deterministic universes that led me to make a new set of laws that do correspond to a non-deterministic universe and a deterministic universe seperatly.
Another random thing, in a deterministic universe, only one thing can happen, so therefore, only one thing will happen. So, if you think about it, only what will happen can happen (In a deterministic universe). So, if you think about it even more, something can only happen if it does happen, meaning if it doesn't happen, it couldn't have happened. I've used the point in conversation for a while, and I think other people should to (but it's only a valid point if we live in a deterministic universe, something you can't prove).
Well, it may be possible in multiverse. If everything is happening, it would make sense that everything that can be happening would be happening.
Yeah so an update on the multiverse part: let’s say that there’s this occurrence of infinite universes, and because so, everything is happening. In this occurrence, anything that can happen will happen, because anything can happen, is happening, and therefore will happen. In that case does the statement work?
So now I pretty sure that anything that can happen will happen, because if in one universe, the things that can happen are also one, meaning only one thing will happen, so what can happen will happen. FURTHERMORE, if in an occurrence where there isn’t one universe but still a finite amount, the events and actions that are happening are the only that can and only that will meaning what can happen will happen. EVEN FURTHERLY MORE, in an infinite amount of universes everything is happening so it is easy to say that whatever can happen will happen.
I’ve made an easier way to understand it with what I call, Impossible or Other:
The most common way to disprove the saying “anything that can happen will happen” is by suggesting an event that could’ve happened but didn’t, little do they know, their suggestion is either Impossible, meaning out of the finite amount of things that can happen, their suggestion wasn’t in it ( like in determinism where only one thing can happen ) or Other, meaning it did happen, but just in another universe ( like in multiverse theory).
But that’s just a theory, a random shower thought theory I had!
Could “Impossible or other” be a theory or law? With explanation it makes sense but because it is often unknown whether or not the event is impossible or other it doesn’t do much but provide a suggestion for the why things happen, like a theory. I think it can’t be a law because it is impossible to prove and you never know if something entirely different could be happening. Is it neither?
The biggest problem rn is the arguement that bc said event isn't going wrong in this universe than it is irelevant, but I think I may be able to work around that
Robert Mathews won the 1996 Ig Nobel prize in physics for
proving Murphy's Law
Edit: prior, I’ve now realized the IG is different than the actual Nobel, my bad
He did get the prize but he proved that toast would always fall butter side down through invariable factors that when calculated only one event could have happened in such an event. In other words he determined it…
Only one event could have happened… determined… why do I bring this up? Because I’ve already stated that murphys law works perfectly in determinism (only one thing could/can happen type shi) but ( previous to impossible or other ) doesn’t work to well in quantum/multiversed theorems ( multiple things could/can happen type shi) so this must mean that Mathews and the Nobel Prize people believe in determinism???
I have a few thoughts that I need to think about now regarding what it actually means to “prove” murphys law that will take some more time to elaborate on that I’ll put down when I’m not as tired
His most interesting point IMO is that Murphy's law itself is hindering proper proofs of it.
Yeah, I think that’s a very interesting point made towards proving Murphy’s law also.
