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

Not sure if this really qualifies...... but I had karma hit me the other way round.
About 18months ago I was pulled over by the local police. I had inadvertantly put my front fog lights on when switching my main lights on (new car, wasn't entirely certain where everything was), when the police saw me whilst I was driving home from rugby training. Pulled me over, and said that they were having a zero tolerance crack down on boy racers in the area. Clearly not a boy racer (rugby kit, covered in mud etc) - as the copper agreed - but seeing as this was a zero tolerance campaign he had no option than to slap me with a £40 on the spot fine. The reason he thought I was a boy racer was the fact I "dazzled him with my fog lights". Fecking jobsworth.
Fast forward to monday of this week. Leaving my job at the local cinema, on autopilot, and was driving home at about midnight. At 60-70mph. In a 40mph zone (yes, I know. Idiot). I didn't see the police car behind me. Pulls me over (after I had realised my mistake and slowed back down) and informs me that if he was a traffic officer, I would be looking at court and at least a 6month ban. Shit. However, as he wasn't a traffic cop, the road was empty and my record is clear, he just said "don't do it again" and let me go on my way...
