No, but I do respect superstitions.
For example: According to theatrical lore, it's the epitome of bad luck to say "Macbeth" in a theatre. Now, personally I could care less, but I know of quite a few people that really take it seriously. So even though I'm pretty damn sure I'll still survive either way, I'd never refer to it as anything but "The Scottish Play" inside a theatre.
I saw a perfectly sane, grown woman burst into a fit of tears because someone mentioned Macbeth in passing, by accident. Since then I've always tried to respect this shit around performances spaces...
