Can a person be a crap magnet?

Okay to start off I'm a total skeptic and don't profess to have any abilities whatsoever.

But yesterday I came down with a bad head cold and the following happened in chronological order.

8:06 am driving back home after dropping off the fiance The car dies like it was pimp slapped by the "hand of god" No noise no nothing it simply dies no power to accessories nothing after a minute the car simply restarts and has run fine since. Car is a 01 with 100,00 miles and maintained regularly.

9:46 am Driving the second car basically new less than 30K miles driving down the highway it again simply dies exactly the same way the other vehicle did. Again restarting after approximately after a minute.

10:20 am The grocery store Feeling the head cold now 3 bottles of Soy Sauce explode as I pass them in the isle not falling just exploding scaring the crap out of everyone in the isle who witnessed it.

11:30 ish While putting away groceries the all in one PC in the Kitchen makes a high pitched squeal and shuts down instantly. Currently running fine without issue.

12:00- 4:00pm nap the head cold really was kicking my a$$

4:45pm Talking to my fiance in the kitchen an unopened steel can of coffee suddenly jumps about 1ft into the air as both ends dome outward as if wanting to explode.

6:00pm Watching television the DVR locks up as if frozen in time no response from the remote had to reboot the DVR to get any response whatsoever.

This happens multiple times during the course of the evening but currently it works fine without issue.

9:30pm Sitting in front of the computer the florescent desk lamp suddenly gets extremely bright "extremely" still seeing sun spots bright LOL. Then it dies.

9:31 Think to myself "WTH" and go back to bed.

Was there solar activity yesterday? Planets aligned in the wrong way? WTF! Was it simply coincidence, or am I losing my marbles was it perhaps, higher powers shunning me for lack of belief. Random quantum events just drawn to my head cold LOL. Or can a person literally be a crap magnet?

Most creative answer gets 10 points!

Update:

Okay Update time: I had the chance to take both vehicles to the dealerships. Both cars were given a clean bill of health after being run on diagnostics. And neither car has had issues since that day. Whatever was going on has ceased and life is good and relatively non reactive once again.

Update 2:

For further thought I did some looking myself and it appears that Solar activity can be ruled out as it seems that the solar wind velocity dropped to a 50 year low in activity on the 23rd according to web sources.

    "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong"

    The correct, original Murphy's Law reads: “If there are two or more ways to do something, and one of those ways can result in a catastrophe, then someone will do it.”

    Personally, I believe in the age old adage of: "Sh*t happens"

    LOL most "creative" answer?

    Ok...... aliens.

    You don't have a head cold, you're having a normal reaction to the implant they put ito your sinus cavity at 8:06 am just ater the "car died."

    the small explosions are just symptoms of your body adjusting to the implant... possibly random energy bursts.

    It should cear up soon though as the implants used are semi-organic.

    Some days are like that. Sounds like you wore out the the alternator in your car (they do wear down and need to be replaced occasionally) and that in combo with the cold put you in a downer mood. Understandable.

    Maybe when your cold clears up, you will feel better. Life is like a game and the key to winning is just to smile, relax, and if life serves you lemons, make lemonade.

    Don't know about the coffee can or the soy sauce, but I'd have an electrician come over and check your breakers ASAP.
