"Sod's Law" nghĩa là gì?


"Sod's Law" = quy tắc Sod -> nghĩa là quy tắc phát biểu rằng: nếu như có thể xảy ra sai sót thì kiểu gì cũng sẽ xảy ra, không thể tránh khỏi.

Ví dụ
Sod’s law is it’ll be the boring choice, like Diskun or Chibi-Robo or something but let’s be positive and imagine it’s one of the other two. For me, Master Chief is the only one that would really be a shocker and I don’t see anyone else, beyond Ratchet & Clank or something, that would be on the same level.

“After not being able to play on Saturday, which was such a nice day, it's sod's law that we wake up on Sunday and it's raining. “Fortunately it subsided (tạnh) and we started 90 minutes late with a reduced 32-over game.”

Sod’s law, however, was not quite finished with the family. After a full day of sitting with the lorry, any hopes that Tia’s dad may have had that he might get to see some of the jumping the following day were dashed when the recovery (phục hồi) vehicle broke down en route to collecting the horsebox.

Whether you call it sod's law in reverse or poetic justice that alone went down well with the public – everyone has been metaphorically (ẩn dụ) ‘jocked off’ in life whether in sport, work or, indeed, love.
