| When something very rare happens for the first time, the opposite of these events would of happened too. As in "The gas station bathroom is clean?? Well, let's break out the winter clothes because Hades just froze over(8)." | ||||||||||
| It is certain that: 1. Two wrongs will make a right. (fortunately) 2. The sun will rise. 3. The phones will work. 4. Death. 5. Taxes. 6.

There will never be peace in the Middle East. 8. Hades will remain a hot place. 9. Zip Code 02878 will always be a boring retirement community with no place to walk to. (Please die somewhere else!!) 10. Weight gained can NEVER be lost and kept off. 11. They will never sell a dozen of doughnuts with cinnamon, powdered, and chocolate frosted in the package at the same time. Instead they have cinnamon, powdered, and plain, or chocolate frosted, powdered and plain. 12. You will never see a demon. 13. There is no queen of faeries. 14. Marriages will fail more than 50% of the time. 16. There will never be a solid-state portable MOD player (unless you get a GBA/PSP/NDS) 17.

The people in Northern Ireland will fight to the death with intentional collateral damage over petty things the way bratty children do 20. East Lake Variety will never sell a dark, caffeine-free, non-diet, carbonated, 20oz beverage. UPDATE: I don't know how long this will last, but now I drink a 2 liter Caffeine Free Regular Coke every day. 21. You can be sacrificed to the gods of war before you are allowed to drink alcohol. 22. Michael Jackson will wish that he was the next Pope. 23. Bill Clinton will never be caught dead within 500 feet of any non-Satanic, non-Pagan, or non-Atheist church. 24. You will never go deaf from the Sony PSP's speakers. 25. It seems like the Gameboy Advance SP's price will never drop below 70 dollars new. 26. It seems like Polaroid 600 film's price will never drop below $1 a shot when measured in year 2005 dollars. UPDATE: Now a 10 pack of film costs $15 (cha ching!) in 2009 dollars. 27. Non-pedophile priests will not ever exist until Armageddon. 28. Portable Sony Minidisc recorders will always have a weak headphone amp on them. 29.

It's cheaper to shoot someone with a gun than a film camera. UPDATE: Digital cameras are making this one less certain. Film is getting really cheap now, like $0.25 a roll at NWL. UPDATE of UPDATE: NWL is now out of buisness. Guess they lost too much money selling good cheap film. 41. Permission will never be granted for commercial purposes. 42.

The electronic flash in your Hasselblad camera that you bought when you were 55 will stop working before you retire. 45.
