I confess to being superstitious, have been since a boy, picked more and more up over the years, common ones like not walking under ladders, tossing salt over shoulder etc etc. But I've also 'inherited' some from others, my wife for instance, she saw a single Magpie when I was with her years ago and said 'morning Mr. Magpie, how's the Colonel ?' and I've said it ever since. I go out of my way to complete some of these, which is ridiculous, but by now ingrained in my psyche. Which got me thinking, are the same ones common in other countries?, do they have more weird ones ? any idiots got any examples ?

Okay so I actually dread the number 13. So my birthday lands on the 13th. So of course in the mix there I get Fridays every so often. So I was 9 years old. I remember I had this absolutely beautiful ballerina birthday cake that I was excited for. Well I wound up in the hospital with tonsillitis. Another birthday I also remember I had been at work and I actually had list 30lbs so I was super happy. But my pants were so big. I thought I had tied them tightly and even used my gaitbelt yo hold them up. Well I came out of a room and sure enough they slid to the floor. Thank goodness it was wash day the previous day. 🤣

Ive dated two women in my life. Both ended up with my house being robbed and numberous lawsuits that followed. Since then I decide to avoid women, since they seem to be bad luck.

Well I have worked up and under ladders my whole life in communications so no problem there. I live at Number 13,  and have never thrown salt over my shoulder. But I believe in 7 years bad luck for breaking mirrors and I must admit I do the whole magpie thing 😂 ( one for sorrow, 2 for joy, 3 for a girl and four for a boy 5 for silver and six for gold) And yes @RobMc I am old enough to remember the old program called Magpie 😂😂😂

Bet you were like me, rushed home from school to see if Susan was wearing a bra or not ? best bit of the show for thousands of schoolboys, destined to grow into dirty old men.

 

Nipples like organ stops had Susan

For a very reasonable fee Rob runs 'Birds and Bees' classes, reductions if you bring a girlfriend for demonstrations.

Yes they were the good old days that fathers and sons spent quality time watching TV together and both getting disappointed when she was wearing a bra 😂😂

Never been one for superstition but I presume they are deep rooted in folklore and fairytale and things like that, it's quite interesting.
