I once heard that jumping over a dead donkey is good luck.

When you say something that you don't want to happen, you say "paypaypay" to omit it so it won't actually happen.

If you spill something while eating you are supposed to throw salt over your shoulder to ward off bad luck, which is all well and good but if you are in a restaurant then try to avoid hitting people with the salt...also a pinch is all that you are supposed to throw, you don't need a handful.

If you say MacBeth 3 times in a row while in a theater, you have to jog around the stage and whistle 3 times in the wings. There are different versions everywhere so don't try to "correct" me please.

Don't talk about fairies unless its a Tuesday.
If you see mushrooms growing around in a circle, avoid it.
My mom buried a statue of St. Joseph upside down on her property when she was trying to sell her house. She swears this works, a few weeks after she did it she got an offer ^_^
EDIT: Oh! And of course step on a crack and break your mother's back.

Haha, as a pagan the fungi ring thing works the opposite way for me. You leave something for them if you want to make contact. Usually whiskey or milk ( preferably good whiskey )

Thats awesome But here, all the older people and a surprising number of young people fear fairies. They might spirit us away or something.

Here most faeries are seen as good, but there are some nasty buggers as well, still if you see a faerie ring you are supposed to put a "gift" in it like a bit of whisky or something

This thread proves that more people take strong drugs than we thought.

I have to vacuum my bedroom carpet so much, all the salt I throw around to ward of evil but no that isn't enough for me, I need to do some barrier rituals for that extra layer of defense.
God help the guy who decides to be my boyfriend...

I have this thing about the number 12.
I was born on the 12th month 12th day.
I had the wreck on the 9th month 12th day.
The plane I left Kentucky on was flight 12.
The firearm I've carried for so long is an S&W model 12.
(I know in most cases it's random coincidence but sometimes it does make me stop and think)

Never let a black cat cross your path, it's bad luck. (I own a black cat, so what to do? Hmmmm).
Never walk under a ladder.
Never break a mirror, that's seven years bad luck.
And the traditional Southern New Year's Eve dinner, which I still do: Which is eat lots of cornbread and you will have lots of gold in the New Year, and eat lots of greens for 'greenbacks' and lots of black-eyed peas for change. (Hasn't worked so far, but I still do it. Oh well, at least it's healthy stuff to eat).

I always heard it was if you spilled salt you were supposed to throw a pinch of it over your shoulder to avoid bad luck. Never heard that about food in general.
Some I've heard/seen include:
If you run a yellow light, you're supposed to kiss your hand, then touch the roof of the car. One friend said it's so you make it through the next yellow light before it turns red, while another friend said it's for luck that the cops won't get you.
If you see a penny lying heads-up and you pick it up, you'll have good luck. But don't pick it up if it's tails-up or you'll have bad luck.
Supposedly it's bad luck if a woman is the first person to cross the threshold of a house on the first day of the year. That one's a bit annoying, but I've heard it before.

If the black cat jump on or over the coffins
Burn that cat and chopped the body into little pieces
for He or she will become an undestroyable zombie and that cat will bond it's power.
In Voodoo believe.....
I guess that burn the cat when they jump on the coffin is much better than find it and burn it 3 days later while running away from a godlike zombie.
ps. That was so cruel, Poor cat.

My mother is also the mother of superstition
Don't look in a broken mirror, put a horse show on the door
When you blankly stare into something just don't because you'll fight with someone
Don't wear your clothes inside out because someone will be mad at you
Don't lick a knife or you'll be an angry person...
Bells shoo devils away
... Hmm... What else?
I can't remember... When i will, i'll post again
