    I love that Stevie Wonder song! 8D

    Naw, but in all seriousness...no. Not really. I mean sure I guess I'm afraid of being "jinxed," but it's mainly out of good fun. xD Plus it always seems that whenever something is going well in some way and I suddenly take notice to it, everything turns around. For instance, if the day went by fast, I'll realize this and then the next couple of hours will feel like they're going by slowly. Obviously that's a purely psychological thing, though. :P

    But like Dratini, I like learning about the origin of superstitions and such. :o It's really cool how some of these things come forth!

    No, I'm not superstitious at all! A lot of superstitions can be rationalized. Mirrors used to be really expensive, so parents would tell their kids if they broke them, they'd have bad luck, for example.

    I'm not really superstitious. I used to have a metal Pikachu keyring that I decided was a good luck charm and brought it everywhere with me for a while, but it didn't seem to be that lucky in the end. xD I don't really worry about ladders, mirrors or cats. The origins are interesting though! Thanks for sharing, AWA1997!

    Well, I don't like to walk under scaffolding or ladders, but otherwise I'm not particularly superstitious. I carry around a 'lucky Hulk' (a Hulk toy I got out of a Kinder egg), and I'm not sure how lucky that is. I also carry around a bracelet my mum gave me for luck, and I got 7 As out of my 8 exams, so I mean... I guess you could see that as being lucky.
