KarmaSue Denham writes, "I once slipped out of work two hours early without the boss noticing. In my hurry to make the most of this petty victory, I knocked myself out on the car door and spent the rest of the day semi-conscious, bowking rich brown vomit over my one and only suit."
Have you been visited by the forces of Karma, or watched it happen to other people?
Thanks to Pooflake for the suggestion

Only slightly karmic, but quite funny nonethelessAfter graduating from a fine university in the West Midlands, I hung around Coventry for a year, generally bumming around and unsure what to do with myself. Eventually the money ran out and I had to go back to my folks' place in London.
Feeling not a little upset at leaving my friends and some of the best curry houses on the planet behind, I had one last look at the TV before I unplugged it. The programme was 'Midlands Today' and if the region could be summed up in one news report, one news report that demonstrated quite why my prospects were in fact better down South, this was it:
Apparently some 13-year-old scrote in some cesspit like Walsall (and I *have* been there, so I know) had broken into an allotment shed and stolen a garden strimmer.
Having liberated said appliance, he did what presumably comes naturally to the glue-and-bovril infused adolescent brain and whirled it around his head by the 20 foot power cord...
...under some power lines.
25,000 volts later he was in intensive care.
I miss the Midlands.

maybebut it's the only place where I've been kicked in the shin in the street by a seven-year-old for not giving him 10p for some crisps. I was 22.

In defence of Walsall...... it does have a fucking brilliant gallery.
