Are any of you supersticios and if so what is it you beleive in.......................................

You go backroom!

Craterus 19:17 04-29-2005

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!!

Beirut 19:19 04-29-2005

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

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?

Craterus 19:54 04-30-2005

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

Mikeus Caesar 19:55 04-30-2005

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

Craterus 20:16 04-30-2005

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

Uesugi Kenshin 00:42 05-01-2005

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.

Are you two also disciples of the Flat Earth Society? See my frontroom thread here:https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showt...270#post762270

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.

Scurvy 14:36 05-01-2005

i dont like walking under ladders, not exactly superstiton, just experience

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

Big King Sanctaphrax 15:21 05-01-2005

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.
