Does what goes around really come around?

Is there something out there that transcends cause and effect and bites you in the ass later?

Have any of you (or your friend, or your sister's friend's cousin's uncle) experienced this phenomenon?

Juicy examples?

I generally believe in karma, however it is more of a psychological/social thing rather then mystical. If you are nice to people all of the time, then usually they will be nice to you back, etc.

Well, I don't know if this is correctly classified as a 'goes around comes around' phenomenon, but I'll give it a go.

I was 5 cents (I just noticed my keyboard has no cents sign) short on a sugar rush trip, so the guy behind me gave me a nickel. About a month later I bought a picture from a garage sale for ŭ. Later I noticed the guy I bought the picture from was the same guy who gave me the 5 cents. Sort of a reeping and sowing thing but it's still pretty weird.

I don't usually experience this (or it's too often to realize). I've found that my life tends to follow a pattern of irony... like, at any point, what will happen is the most ironic thing possible at that point.

I think me being alive is a good example of that.

*sigh*

Life is just the collaberation of all possible ironies into a set amount of time (yes, it will all end eventually in my opinion, and probably start over). What goes around may not come back around, but Irony will likely find a way to screw you or someone else eventually. Life is Irony, the rest is just details.

This one time... I saw this guy post a really lame post... and he got hit by an 18 wheeler. And a plane crashed on him. Several times. And there was homosexual necrophiliac pygmies that like, you know, to him.

Guess that sure showed him!
