Superstitions- have you believe in any of these?

INReview Opinion Polls and Surveys Forum

Tell us if you believe in any of these superstitions. This is a multiple choice poll.

Fuscia closed a poll back in the summer of 05, and right after that, I got a bad case of the shingles. Me fears she may be a witch.

well if you believe that then you disproved the last one on the poll. I keed!

Dave, I know what you're saying. Fuscia closed another poll, at the beginning of '06, and I broke out in hives, multiple times. Then, she started this one, and I broke out again. I think that she's a witch!!!!

I would scream out loudly to "BURN HER! BURN THE WITCH!", but she gave me the shingles and the drop palsy and nervous tremor and a leaky spleen, so I'm scared of her poll closing powers. If she closed this one, it might go ahead and kill my sorry ***.

Damn, and what would it do to me, Dave? *shivering* I'm scared now.

Actually the 3 cigarettes with the same match was a fact. Back in world war 1 the British soldiers in the trenches would share matches because there were not a lot going around. Anyway the first cigarette lit would attract German snipers, the second one lit would let the sniper take aim and the third won lit never got to enjoy his cigarette.

Anyway I believe in the match one and the falling star.

I'm a fairly superstitious person. I chose all but lighting three cigarettes with one match, a broken mirror meaning seven years of bad luck, and the last two. But some superstitions are just common sense, like not walking underneath a ladder and that finding a penny is good luck. One day last year I found six pennies face up and one face down, so my friend kicked the penny that was down until it hit the wall and flipped over, and then I had a lucky amount of lucky pennies

Another common sense one is the cat one on the list. If a cat's walking toward you then of course it's good because you get to pet it If it's leaving, then it usually doesn't want to be petted, so that's not good.

Only Fuscia closing polls can bring bad luck and everybody knows it.

That's what I've been trying to say... why won't anyone listen to me? http://bestsmileys.com/angry1/2.gif

Are you sure "witch" is the right word in this instance?

It's the safest to spell around here!

Either that or they have "Fudd Syndrome".

I was walking down the street downtown one day, and there was a ladder, with nobody on it, just sitting on the sidewalk.

I was in the process of walking around it, when I realized "f all that, I don't believe in this s***"

So then I purposely walked underneath it.

Superstitions are stupid.

I knew a dude who walked under a ladder once. You know what happened to him 50 years later? Dead. No joke, man.

I checked the 4-leaf clover one, b/c you rarely find it. and the shooting star one - just b/c its from my childhood. Everything else is just a myth.
The evil spirit one sounds creepy. but what if you're just standing under a VENT?
what if a black cat walks to the side of you?
what if your right hand itches b/c you have a sweating problem or a rash?
i think it's good luck to find ANY coin facing any way b/c you're that much richer!
what if you live in a bad neighborhood and all the sidewalks are cracked? I'd say you've had enough bad luck already!
if 6 crows is death, what's 20? My college campus looked like a scene out of the Birds... what is that? bloody murder?

interesting....
if you're salting your beer, that's not smart to begin with, that's just icky! does anyone do that? what's it taste like?

I thought the black cat one was if the cat crossed your path, then it was bad luck.

ME closing polls is not the source of bad luck. It is a well known fact that Whidden salts his beer. Well he has been doing it in secret all these years. I found out that the night my car was hit, Whidden salted a beer. The night I had hives all over my body? Whidden salted another beer.

I even heard that on 9/11 Whidden salted 4 beers! Yep 4 planes= 4 beers I blame the salt company.

At least you aren't blaming me!

Salty beer is for dinger garden growers...

see, apparently, salting your beer makes your eyes water!!! Your tears would rather escape than taste the salty beer.

Never light three cigs on a match, that's totally bad juju.

Also, never rub another mans rubarb

-HECK!

Heck, if you were rubbing someone else's rubard, I would be thinking some really strange things about you. So would illuminate. So, it's all good.

See... she's freaked out at just the THOUGHT of that.

It's from Batman... nothin? That was a great quote.

-HECK!

yeah, whatever... "batman".... mmhhmm

Shush.

When Joker shoots Bruce Wayne. Don't be H8'n.

-HECK!

Yeah, it was The Joker, aint none of you folks seen BATMAN ?

Wheezy always has my movie quotin' back. Bunch of feebs 'round here, aren't hip to the street.

-HECK!

Yeah, these were the same boneheads that didn't know about the Regulators and the Young Guns movies. Geeeeeeeesssshhhhhh!!!!!

Yup, bunch of morans.

-HECK!

Bunch o' movie illiterates.

That's the one with Jack Nicholson as The Joker, right?

Yeah and Jack was ace in that film.

Man, one of the best quotes of the movie. And it's rhubarb, anyway

Joker thought Bruce Wayne was being salty on Vicki Vale so he shot him. That's how it goes down in Gotham.

-HECK!

Another good superstition is for gamers and maybe gamblers; I don't know about them but I'm assuming is goes for them, too. If you get many bad roles on a die or some dice, change the die because it is filled with bad luck. Also, never role the die when you don't need to, because you could be using up all of your good roles.

Fuscia closing polls is a sign of bad luck

where's the one "don't split the pole?
