Unlucky
Unlucky fellow or unlucky fellow is a slang term for a person who suffers mishaps or mishaps over and over again.
The term unlucky bird is derived from medieval bird hunting. At that time, birds were caught with liming rods to which the animals would stick. The rods coated with bird glue were also called "pitch rods". So the trapped “unlucky person ” became a symbol for someone in whom fate played badly.
