(Not) superstitious

#

Started by allroy in Chit-Chat

So it’s Friday 13th again.
Any superstitious souls out there? I’ve read an article in my local newspaper this morning that people tend to believe in that stuff more than ever. Over 40% of the Germans think that a four-leaf clover really brings you good luck. In general women are more superstitious than men.
You’re so easy to deceive, aren’t you? On the other hand, if you were not, would you ever fall for us men? :rolleyes:

So, feel free to come up with your Friday 13th stories (no, Jason, we don’t want to hear yours, it’s about superstition and not about grown ups wearing hockey masks), like any special preparations when you’re going to a T? show, any T? shirts you’ve got to wear, or the usual suspects like avoiding black cats etc.

I’m sure I read somewhere that there are more car accident on friday the 13th than any other day, or maybe that was just a dream I had.

I shall be smashing a mirror, walking under any ladders I encounter, spilling salt left right and centre, enticing black cats to cross my path, and gleefully opening an umbrella in my house. I laugh in the face of superstition, you see.

I have my lucky socks :). Before you start mocking me, let me explain. I collect strange looking socks. I have them in every collor you can imagine (and the ones you can’t imagine, I have them too) and different shapes, and from every place I ever visited. It’s my idea of a souvenir.

But I have two pairs of lucky socks. Why two? That’s for hygenic reasons :). Every day a fresh pair and I need one day to wash and dry the other one.

I wear my lucky socks to every important moment in my life. I used to wear them to every difficult exam, every job interview, the first time I had a date with my boyfriend,… Sometimes even a T?-concert :).

It may be silly (no it certainly is silly :)) but it makes me feel comfortable.

Other superstitious things don’t really affect, just the socks.

How many forms can a sock have to still fit a foot?

You also could live with only one pair of lucky socks if you decide to spend the days hopping on one leg. I bet one-leg-hopping brings luck as well. ;)

well I have socks with toes on (like a glove but for your feet), than one with a nice snake coming out of the part that goes around your leg, like the leg is the water an the snake comes out of it, than I have one with a santaclaus at each side of the legpart… Shall I go on :)

I’m not too sure about the hopping-on-one-leg-thing. I think I might look silly :)

That’s why he asked MissCE and me about any wedding plans. He wants to have a test whether wombles really can live together and not just during mating season (i.e. a T? tour).
But can you really ask nitro and glycerine whether they can coexist? :rolleyes:

Poor boy, didn’t mean to harm you. The only reason you won’t get any champagne is that most probably you’re the driver.
(I’m just kissing your ass to get some from roxy. Hmm, don’t take that literally, please.:o)
MissCE was probably shouting your name but didn’t dare to confess (ha, even more champagne for me now).
