A fictitious explanation of the origin of this phrase occurs in the 1994 movie Forrest Gump. During his capricious run, an enthusiastic fan running alongside him points out to Forrest that he has just stepped in a pile of dog feces. When Forrest replies, "It happens," the fan replies, "What, shit?", to which Forrest replies, "Sometimes". The fan is then unwittingly inspired to create the "Shit Happens" bumper sticker. wikipedia
