Muphry's [sic] law, indeed.
- justizin 12y agoclick the link, it's not [sic] so much as Muphry's law is not to be confused with Murphy's. "Muphry's law is an adage that states that when a person criticises another's editing or proofreading, there will be a mistake of a similar kind in that criticism. The name is a deliberate misspelling of Murphy's law."
