Superstitions?

[ozentity]

I do that, too.

It's good in my place now as it's a log cabin and all wood interior. Sometimes hard in the car so I usually touch my head instead, lol.

I don't know where that one started, I do remember mum telling me to put an uneven number of kisses on birthday cards but my take is two is bad luck and I stick to it. Thanks for bring that up Duke, it must be the uneven thing I got it off.

That's interesting. I knew a Russian guy who also had a thing with even numbers. He gave his girlfriend a bouquet of 13 roses because a dozen roses was "bad luck".

Even numbers are divisible, which reduces their power.

Do you have a silly superstition that you do before doing something important or scary?

-I always chew gum before I ride my dirtbike or sometimes operate machinery.
-I always wipe the mouth piece of a Diet Coke cans before I put my mouth on it. I’ve been doing that for 25 years.
-I always put my right shoe on before my left.

My Grandfather had this thing about no hats on a chair seat or bed, said it was "Bad Luck."
To this day I do not place a hat on a chair seat or bed....

My grandpa had this one.
He liked baseball and owned race horses. His world was based on luck. Pop passed along a bunch of superstitions.
