Every now and then, one hears about, reads, or sees something that had an obvious, sometimes humorous outcome that either you (if you were were the one responsible), or the people responsible for the even should have seen coming.
For example, I was laying in bed throwing eight pound dumbbell up in the air, and I missed catching it, and was struck rather hard in the side of the head when it fell.
Another example, which is one having someone else failing to realize what the obvious outcome would be is the 10 cent beer night that was held by the Cleavland Indians in 1974. Not only did that mean more fans that usual would show up (for the cheap beer, not to see the Indians play) and be highly intoxicated, but also the game was against the Texas Rangers, with whom they had some bad blood stemming from a prior game. The whole night ended with a massive riot between drunken Indians fans, the cops, and both teams, who at that point were working together to defend themselves from the beer fueled raging crowd.
They really should have seen that coming.
So what examples can you think of, they can be real stories from your life (involving you or something you saw), historical events that ended poorly in a preventable way, or things from video games and books.
