Superstitious People Reveal Their Wildest Beliefs
I must say, I have a few superstitions ingrained in me. Don't we all? I hesitate to toast with a glass of water or share my wish when I blow out birthday candles. And even though my personal ones are pretty tame, I always LOVE to hear about the strange things people believe and how they rationalize them into their everyday life.
So when Reddit user Responsible_Idea8766 asked, "What superstition do you absolutely believe in?" I HAD to dive in and share them with you all.
Hats on beds causing death.
Debit card positioning.
Shoe order.
Strange full moon coincidences.
Childhood weather affects who you are.
The name Pat.
Iron keys.
The planet Mercury has social power.
Putting tools away early.
Untucked limbs.
Not trusting the 'save' button.
The tech support paradox.
Jinxing work.
Knocking on wood.
Things happen for a reason.
Lucky and unlucky numbers.
Deja vu.
Sharing wishes.
Waves of good and bad things.
Picking up coins.
Throwing salt.
I have a few weird ones, too – ones I can't reason out. For instance, I don't put my purse on the ground because I believe it shows that I don't respect money, causing the universe to withhold any surpluses that could come my way. Or that Friday the 13th causes bad juju...I can't tell you why.
In the comment, tell me the WEIRDEST superstitions you believe in or know someone who does. It's an itch I need to keep scratching.
