Laser-Guided Karma: Difference between revisions

* Used quite frequently on [[The King of Queens]] anytime Doug or Carrie (or both) come up with a selfish scheme to benefit themselves. A good example: in the episode ''Buy Curious'' an elderly neighbor dies and Carrie convinces Doug to buy her house for a small sum then "flip it" to make a larger profit. However, it costs them too much to make repairs to it, theuy inadvently insult an African couple who attempt to buy it, and are forced to sell it to Lou Ferrigno (whom they had forced away from the house, despite him only tending the plants)for much less then they paid for it.

* Gregory House of ''[[House]]'' sometimes finds his underhanded actions will undermine the very goal he was aiming to achieve. Perhaps one of the most poignant instances was when he plugged up various sewage mains at the hospital as a result of his anger at {{spoiler|Wilson deciding not to seek cancer treatment}}. When he finally accepts the decision and resolves to enjoy what time he has left with {{spoiler|Wilson}}, he's jailed for felony vandalism as a result of flooding the hospital and loses that remaining time.
