I was talking to an elderly boy today who makes sure his volume on the TV is at an even number.
I know a boy who drinks beer in even numbers (i.e. finishes of 2 or 4 or 6 cans...)

I don't walk under road signs with 2 poles.

Any other headcases out there?

I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Don't know if its a superstition but my pillow can't be hanging out of the bed even by an inch when i am in bed, it has to be inside the frame of the bed.

Billions of them celebrating Christmas, Hanukkah, Yule, Malkh, Diwali recently.

Jasus but ye're some sad lads  ??? ;D
But not as bad as Mayotramp  with his gratuitous insults of all the world's religions.
If a religious believer insulted agnostics/athiests we'd never hear the end of it.

O come on. The thread is called "superstitions" ffs.

If I were laughing at Jim Corr you wouldn't be complaining. That is genuinely how off the wall religious belief comes across to me.

Virgin birth
Rising from dead
Water converted to wine
Walking on water
Commanding a Sea to part at will
People turned into pillars of salt
Woman created from the ribs of a man
Two brothers populating the Earth!!!
Talking burning bush
All land animals fit on one ship made from wood
Winged man talks to young girl telling her she will be impregnated by a supernatural being
Rivers turned to blood without the slaughter of animals/people
Towers where every language on Earth can be understood
Horsemen of the Apocolypse
Dragons
Pigs with demons
A man, thats also a deity and also another type of deity but also his own father and his own son
Talking snakes
Angels of Death slaughtering children
Rape of young girls seen as the correct action
Fathers hearing voices telling them to kill their own sons
Warriors made of bronze
Unicorns
Fishes and Loafs multiply
Satyr
100 forskins as a dowery and that mad b**tard David killed lots more and came back with 200
Giants
Making bread from feces

I don't have to "defend religion" or justify my beliefs to you or anyone else.

That's just common sense, you need to hold on to as much territory as possible.

No superstitious reason but always have to drink Guinness from the side without the logos. Wouldn't taste right otherwise.
