Black Cats, Hat on beds and Ladders to walk under
Stupidstition. Me don't like it.
Me were raised in a terribly superstitious environment and although me don't believe in them thing Me cain't find a way to get rid of 'em.
Some of the silly beliefs do got some merit to them. It just be plain common sense not to walk under a ladder. After all how many times do ya gotta see Wile E Coyote flattened by an Acme safe or one of the Three Stooges covered in paint before ya figure that one out. (Yeah, yeah me knows it ain't about that)
Me don't avoid black cats and never throws salt over me shoulder. The last time me did that Me angered the person sittin behind me cause the salt were on the rim of a glass containing a frozen Margarita.
Me has had to learn about a whole new set of stupidstitions now that Me lives in Lilliput. No whistling at night and never hang you laundry out at night. There probably be some no-nonsensical reasons for them, but me too lazy to find out.
Iffin ya happen to break a mirror today, you might not have to deal with seven years of bad luck. Me knows a crafty lawyer who could get you off with three plus some community service time...
STOMP.
Me no worried 'bout havin thirteen toes.

That's just for good luck, stompy!!
I've learned to embrace black cats, ladders, and full moons. Not necessarily in that order. If it's associated with bad luck, I demand that it bring me good luck. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I've never slipped in salt and fallen off a ladder onto a black cat under a full moon, though.:-)
I used to throw salt over my shoulder, but due to health concerns I now throw a salt substitute.
I agree with Serena. It seems like the black cats get all the full moon action while I'm busy trying to climb the ladder. No more! I'm taking Jazz lessons.
Scary - its ok. I was the one behind you. I thought that was just your monster way of buying me a drink :)
Stupidstition. Hehehe. Maybe even stuporstition.
"never hang you laundry out at night"
- all kinds of nightly animals might leave a present for you on the laundry
- batman might want to change his outfit
- it might rain, agreed, if the laundry get's wet again, the circle is round, but keeping them in such a short circle forces you to buy an other set of clothes to wear, and that's just too expensive
I need a crafty lawyer. Can he come to Oakland?
