-You should burn your hair at all times because if a bird gets it and put it in his nest you will lose your mind and have a bad -headache all the time, from all the birdie noise.!

-If someone sweeps your feet with the broom, you will be arrested on your wedding day.

-Never say "thank you" when someone gives you a plant or it will die.

-A baby was never allowed to look in a mirror before it was a year old or it would die.

-If big black storm clouds came up you take an axe, hold it up towards the sky and bring it down. This cut the clouds into so they would go away.

-If you dreamed of a wedding, it meant a death.
-A death meant good luck.
-If you dreamed of a muddy river it meant bad luck was dogging your trail.
-If the river was clear, you need have no worries, your luck was good.

-If you see a postman or a red truck, cross your fingers and make a wish. Then, keep your fingers crossed until you see a dog, and your wish will come true; if you don’t keep your fingers crossed, you will have bad luck.

-If you cut your hair during a full moon, it will grow fast

-If you kill a daddy longlegs spider, it will rain.

-If you drop a knife, a boy will come; if you drop a fork, a girl will come.

In reply to Ivan R, the menstruation theory about women being unclean should be quite obvious. Of course they're not, but in the Middle Ages, the idea of blood coming from 'down there' was abhorrent, although, of course it was perfectly natural. It still is pretty gross today... I guess you have to be a woman to understand. -_-

Anyway, at sixth form, some kids invented a superstition that it was bad luck to walk over manhole covers, especially those three-in-a-row ones. If you did, you had to spit on the grond and/or shout 'Royal Mail Man'

No idea about the Royal Mail Man thing, except that some of the manholes (now owned by BT) have the initials GPO (General Post Office) on them. And I suppose walking over wet metal manhole covers could cause you to slip, so that would be bad luck.

I work in a major casino in Las Vegas. I have seen the most bizarre superstitions!

Take craps for instance. The dice themselves are measured to the MICRON but if the dice roll off the table players will almost always insist on getting the same dice to throw again rather than using a readily available- and precisely identical- replacement.

I honestly believe that gamblers are more superstitious than any other group on the planet.

Answer 7

I know lots of crazy ones, but the funniest one I have heard of is very recent: make a wish when your digital clock reads 11:11.

Lexi (27) said to me one day, "It's eleven eleven; make a wish." Having grown up with analog clocks, I didn't get her meaning at once. Then I realized: she's been looking at digital clocks all her life. To her, the arrangement of numbers on the readout is a different thing from looking at hands on a clock face.

Since this 11:11 thing must be relatively new, perhaps we should try to trace its origin.

Answer 8

Hi,
Of course they are all senseless, and unbeleivable, but good fun.
Someone told me that if I put a penny on the wart on my finger, then buried it in the garden, it would go away.
Nonesense. I still have the small wart.
What about being told to kiss my boat before setting off ?
Otherwise it will come to grief.
I did not to kiss it, and all was well.
I have a four leafed clover. Did I win the lottery ? No.
It is , in my humble opinion, all b***ocks.
All the best of luck,
Bob

Answer 9

Three colours being lucky. Three coloured cats are lucky. If the Dr gives you antibiotics there's no way they'll work unless you have three different colours of pills. I knew a doctor who'd prescribe the necessary pills plus two different coloured placebos. Tattoos will protect you from being shot (popular with body guards in some countries).
