HDC Weekly Debate: Are you superstitious?

Well...are you?

Do you avoid walking under ladders?
Believe in horseshoes hanging like an U over your door?
Keep four-leaf clovers and rabbits' feet close?
Do your best to not break a mirror?
Throw salt over your left shoulder after you have spilled some?
Sit at home and do nothing on the 13th, if it is a Friday?
Always open umbrellas outdoors on rainy days?

Let's hear it.

And if you believe in any others, let's hear them also.

Nah....It may cross my mind if I break a mirror or a black cat walks in front of me...but I won't dwell on it.

Not superstitious at all

My dad has one though. He will always wear the same football shirt to a game until we lose a match then he will never wear it again, believing it to be jinxed from that point.

I make a point of walking under ladders, stepping on cracks, approaching black cats, spilling salt when I'm around someone superstitious. I've broken numerous mirrors. Nuff Said.

Definitely not.

However, I am at times obsessive-compulsive, which I guess in some instances could be confused with superstition: both involve going out of one's way to do or avoid a certain action or something like that.

This isn't much of a debate.

Not at all. I base my decisions on logic.

Same here. I notice when those kind of things happen, and I'll joke about it or mess with whoever it happened to, but there's nothing real to it as far as I'm concerned.
