Not necessarily, I'm not superstitious of anything widely known. Little customs I've done since I was a child, I make sure to do them just for good luck and NO BAD LUCK!!

Not crazy about the number 13. Not that bad, but a bit.

Never talk to me about crashing before I ride my motorcycle!

Always cut the marker ribbons off trees before you climb them to cut them down.

I am not really superstitious, but if I seem to be getting bad rolls with a die in D&D I switch dice. Some nights it works, other nights the luck of the Irish fails me, must be my Scottish blood....

I have a habit of breaking every superstitious rule I come across - if I hear of them. I suppose I'm just contrary.

Niels Bohr kept a horse shoe over his desk. One day a student asked if he really believed that a horse shoe brought luck. Bohr replied, "I understand that it brings you luck if you believe in it or not."

I believe there's no such thing as bad luck, it's just the way you take it. I also have my own, odd, little personal religion. A giant space coyote controls my fate and the rest of the universe. He lives in the sun :sunny: and has a little map of the world, and whenever he wants a natural disaster to punish us all, he pokes the place he wants it to happen. I'm crazy, no? :rolleyes4:

Crazy is one way to describe that. I'm not worried about number 13 or walking under ladders etc.

I view number 13 as a lucky number. 13 is the ideal number of hours i would like to sleep every night.

13 isn't an unlucky or lucky number for me. I don't have unlucky numbers, just lucky numbers.

Yeah he is off his rocker, odd that he still types fairly coherent posts...

I can't think of another funny quote at the moment, I will have to go play OpFlash for a while and see if any of those are funny.

Strange - I thought only I knew of the hidden space coyote in the sun, now Im confused.

The 'Flat Earth Society' is incredibly wrong and evil says the manevolent Space Coyote. He says that the scientists are right, the Earth is round. Like a bouncy ball.

Just as crazy as many others, imnsho.
But shouldn't religion be discussed in the backroom (nowadays a lovely, PP-free zone)?

This doesn't seem to be discussing religion in any serious way, Paul Peru, and has been good-natured, so I am letting it stay.
