    When I mark my golf ball, I will use a 1976 half dollar with the top of Kennedy's head facing towards the hole.

    I will not wear certain shirts when my teams play.

    Not really a superstition, but I think it is Lil Pun that takes a shower after he takes a dump. Being serious here, people.

    I always take a dump before I ask a girl for a date. It has been working every time.

    Random and weird I know but..
    I can't put things in a microwave for any amount of time that are increments of 5.. So no minute.. No 35 seconds..... No minute and 35 seconds... I have to put them in for like 41 seconds or whatever random numbers I feel drawn to.

    I can't have any red numbers on my iPhone screen. I will immediately update, or read messages/emails just to clear them. Total weirdo, I know.

    When you believe in things that you don't understand, then you suffer.

    Superstition ain't the way.

    I think it's bad luck to believe in superstitions

    Various ocd things that are sports related, i.e. watching rockets games, or playing tennis.

    I do not like black cats. I know, cliche, but if one crosses in front of me I will do everything it takes not to cross it's path, including turn my car around.

    I have broken a mirror and worried about it a bit, though not for seven years.

    The number 11. It has been my favorite number since I can remember. More and more, I am constantly "aware" of the time, and any manifestation of, 11:11. I don't know if this is a good or bad thing, but I see it every time, everywhere. There is a lot of info on the net regarding it, most of it ridiculous, but it happens enough and in ways that make me .... let's just say ... aware of it.

    I know... right?

    My grandfather used to say 13 was his lucky number. He was a huge baseball fan, so I wore 13 on my jersey. My kids wear 13 now.

    It's superstition of course....I guess you can say it worked against me since I didn't make the major leagues...personally, I believe there might have been other factors ;)

    Not weird. I do the same exact thing. I hate seeing unread messages.

    I do the same, except it's only for the time that I set my alarm clock to. If I want to get up at 5:45, it's set for 5:44 or 5:46.

    1.Just a random tidbit, but in England it's the opposite. Anytime a white cat crosses your path it's bad luck.

    2. That's the law of attraction my friend

    At some point I noticed people taking certain sections out of newspapers, so anytime I get one from a stack it's always the second one, never off the top.
