13 Murphy's Law of Lockers - If there are only two people in a locker room, they will have adjacent lockers.

#13 could be renamed "Thai Social Law," and applies to restaurants as well.

In a large restaurant, if there are only two customers/groups, Thais will undoubtedly put them at adjacent tables. I once asked a waitress why she did that (to me) and she thought she was doing me a favor by placing me in a potentially social situation. (!) Yes, it is intentional when they do that!

Another true story (and true to Murphy's Law of Lockers) at my gym just last week, I arrived as the only customer and was assigned a locker. While I was changing, the next fellow came in and was given the locker next to mine -- in a corner! Until I moved down to the next bench to change clothes, he had NO way to access his locker and get changed.
