Title: Shouldn't have bought the juice megapack

Title: Negotiating From a Position of Strength (or, Christmas in the Wastelands)
Stephanie and Victoria knew that there would be a price to pay even to approach the treasure the griffin was guarding. There always is.
Griffin: "How's about a little kiss, Red? That is, if you want the treasure...?"
Stephanie: "That's not mistletoe, you moron, it's holly. It doesn't count."
Griffin: "Hey, am I a botanist? Do I look like Euell Freakin' Gibbons to you!? Let's just take the intent for the deed, and get down to a little seasonal osculation, shall we?"
Stephanie: "Well..., okay. But no tongue!" (To Victoria): "If he tries to slip me any tongue, you kill him, understand?"
Victoria: "I'm on it!"

The Mall is Closed
Murphy’s Law: When you really need it the Mall is closed.
Janna stopped to admire the camisole worn by the mannequin. She put down one of her bags of groceries to feel the silky fabric. It wasn’t until she got home that she realized she was missing the most important ingredient. By the time she got back to the Infernal Mall it had closed with her bag trapped inside.

Murphy's Law #10 - "The probability of an occurance is in inverse ratio to its desirability."
Fumble
She nursed him back to health when he broke his foot. She was so kind and patient. He fell head over heels in love. Desperate to see her again and express his feelings he arranged a rendezvous on the footbridge, near the hospital. He purchased a jewelry box, carefully tucking a necklace inside. It was the perfect moment, the warm glow of the late afternoon sun, the quiet, deserted walkway. Filled with nervous excitement, his hand sweaty and shaking, he presented his gift - that slipped from his grasp and tumbled away...

A Curious date
[Murphy's law: Your one night stand date will always look less appealing in the morning than he did the night before.]
When the young artist woke up this morning, she did vaguely remember bringing home a guy last night, but was quite surprised when she took a look at him in a clear daylight.

Murphy's law #4 - "Nature always sides with the hidden flaw."
Circus - Finally winter was loosening it's grip. The sun was warm, soon the trees would bud and the carnival would come to town. In his green house admiring his prize hibiscus, Gus noticed a circus truck stopped at the end of his farm. A young lady dressed in a skimpy costume had gotten out. Quickly, he snipped her a stem of flowers and hurried down for a closer look and to see if he could be of help. He'd no sooner given her the flowers when he was grabbed from behind and held in a bear hugging, furry, embrace. "Oh", the girl exclaimed, "Sinbad likes you!" Gripped with terror, Gus managed to gasp - "I'm allergic to cats."

Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse
Wealthy hedge fund manager Marty Pipster retired for several decades to his well-stocked bunker in order to wait out the bad times. When he ran out of his favorite scotch he decided to come out and found that, as Murphy and his own professional "wisdom" predicted - left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse. Good thing he was up pretty high as those pesky ocean levels were up quite a bit.

Law of Fashion
Any given dress is: indecent 10 years before its time, daring 1 year before its time, chic in its time, dowdy 3 years after its time, hideous 20 years after its time, amusing 30 years after its time, romantic 100 years after its time, and beautiful 150 years after its time.
Barry Smythe always cheerfully disregards his tasteless neighbor's derisive stares and comments, knowing that he is on the cutting edge of fashion.

Some Day My Prince Will Come...
... bearing an invitation to his Grand Ball. But that will be the day after I decided it was never going to happen, so I took all my party dresses to the charity shop and now I literally haven't a thing to wear!
