Used mainly to, well, punch holes into eggs to keep them from leaking during the cooking process.

CIMG4264 While being a simple and useful device there lies some danger in using it in the wrong position. The correct usage is even documented on Wikipedia (german).

You all know Murphy, the guy responsible for all the bad stuff happening, and he said something like this:

If you arrive with enough time left till your train leaves, it will be delayed for at least 20 minutes. If you are late it will leave on time for the first time ever.

It is public knowledge that Murphy’s Laws are the driving force that keeps this universe together. With them failing I can only assume the worst …
