21 Times Life Chose to Harass One Person in Particular
Sometimes the universe itself seems out to get you, to screw you over in particular. It's a feeling we've all experienced -- unless you're Chris Hemsworth. But you're here, reading this, so we will assume you are in fact not Chris Hemsworth but one of us: a normal, moderately unimpressive person, doing their best to stay just out of reach of the crippling disappointment always snapping at their heels like some macabre, existential Temple Run.
Heck, it's exactly the kind of misery that inspired many, if not most, of the stories of Greek Mythology where some petty god decided some lowly mortal was getting a little too much hype. Or a little too much Zeus.
Also, if you don't remember Temple Run, rejoice; that means you're at least a few rungs above us on the ladder of life.
