Re: Things happen Or: One person's opinion

Staying with the original, "sh.. happens", I'd suggest

{qaS veQ}
"garbage happens"

Hm, okay, maybe this would only be understood by a terran...

But I think we have a nice idiom we can use here:

{ngaQ lojmIt} (lit. "The door is locked.") 
  1. The situation has an unavoidable outcome; 
  2. The plan or commitment is firm and cannot be changed.

Isn't that what we mean when we say "*it happens"?

Quvar.
