Tantalus Curse

What is Tantalus Curse?


1.

From Tantalus, the Greek mortal cursed in Tartaurus to spend all eternity in a pool of water with fruit branches overhead, but never being able to reach them to take a bite to eat or drink.

Used to describe a purpetual streak of bad luck, usually characterized by a sudden upsurge of good fortune that ultimately turns sour when the 'cursed' party goes to secure it.

Man, I'm really Tantalus cursed, today. I just got this big check in the mail, that I need to pay the bills with, but I can't cash it in, anywhere!
