I have my funny little ways but i pick and choose my superstitions....
I have 2 black cats, by coincidence but you never know!!!
I dont walk on 3 drains!!!!! :doh:
But most things i dont really fuss about!
What about you?
:sparring: :scared:
Won't walk under a ladder, throw spilled salt over my left shoulder, don't spin knives.
I only follow the walking under ladders one, I'm not that bad other than that. I have a friend who is serious right down to not saying certain words on a Friday! that and don't tell anyone on a Saturday what you dreamed of on a Friday night, apparently it comes true. confused
i never let a black ladder cross my path!

dunno

I used to be so much worse with superstitions- verging on ridiculously obsessive!
Now I stick to the usual- avoiding ladders, knocking wood, salt over shoulder etc, but the worst one is that every time I see a lone magpie (which is usually several a day on my commute to work) I have to salute 3 times and say 'good day sir' 3 times!
And on the first of every month I have to say 'Rabbits rabbits rabbits' before I say anything else that day!
I worry about myself!....

nah don't worry hun.....I'm worse than that......most of them I think I've made up myself, and I'm not going to go into them as everyone will realise what a nutter I really am.....but one of my worst ones is putting new shoes on a table.....I nearly had a nervous breakdown the other day when my sister put her newly purchased wedding shoes on my mothers kitchen table confused
I don't even know where I picked up most of mine from but I seem to have loads.....although a lot of mine probably boil down to OCD rather than superstition lol
I'm not superstitious at all, but I am prone to the type of 'magical' thinking that people with OCD have.
For example I have to say "Be careful" to Mrs Kiss if she is driving anywhere, because if I don't I will pace, panic and worry until I hear she has arrived at her destination safely.
Rather annoyingly there are many, many 'things' like this that rule my life at times, especially if I'm worried or stressed. But it's nowhere near as bad as it used to be, and for that I am very grateful.
Opening an umbrella indoors or walking under a ladder doesn't phase me at all, but don't expect me to be able to get to sleep if I haven't turned the landing light on and off twice.
I won`t walk under a ladder, I have to salute a lone magpie and say good morning mr magpie, I won`t walk over 3 drains or split a post!!. oh I also freak if anyone puts new shoes on a table!!!. omg im scaring myself saying this didn`t realise just how superstitus i was :shock:
Wow you lot make me feel tired just reading all you have to do to keep 'safe'
Glad I am too bloody minded to care, or is it lazy ... biggrin

I am the 13th to reply in this thread.
I'll let you know if anything happens to me.........
Duncan, Silk and Big G were worried about posting on this thread, what with there being thirteen posts already here... looks like we'll have to keep an eye on you... how's it going so far?
You haven't opened any cats indoors, or stepped on any cracked new-shoes have you?
wouldn't want you tempting fate or owt would we?

ladders, salt over the shoulder, white rabbits beginning of every month, black cat crossing my path, magpies-1 for sorrow, 2 for joy etc,I didn't buy any baby items until I was at least six months gone as this is bad luck, always stir your drinks clockwise, if you break glass you have bad luck for seven (or is it nine) years,when you buy a purse for some-one always put in a coin for good luck, find a penny pick it up, all day long you get good luck.
Could carry on for ages redface
No I don't think so.......although other people's superstitions sometimes rub off on me if I am with them!

god I forgot about all of these ones! I do them without even thinking about it!
The weird thing is I don't really believe in any weird stuff like this otherwise, so why am I superstitious?!

I'm not superstitious, even though I have broken sooooooo many mirrors when i was younger I just take everything in my stride.
superstition? pah! merely the ritualised hangovers of primitive man's irrational belief in obsolete models of reality, and the abstract narratives he told himself to explain his place within it. wouldn't ever catch me being quite so irrational. rolleyes
except of course, that little thing about the longtails. you know, that thing about not ever saying it! the ' r*t' word? the bigger, slinkier version of yer mouse? don't ever say that out loud, whatever you do! oh, and there's 'jaspers', obviously! everyone knows that one though, so goes without saying. luckily noone says it that much anymore though as it goes, cos we're all PC and stuff these days. it's primate this, and great ape that, bit less of yer sweepingly generic 'm*nk*y', bit more of yer species specific stuff.
course, if you forget the longtail / jasper thing, luckily, you can just touch black and salute three times, then all will be well. as for saluting magpies with a "Good morning", i'd say that's more a matter of polite good manners than it is yer actual superstition? confused
