Last Tuesday I dropped a hand mirror in the kitchen and it shattered into like 20 pieces. I panicked so bad because my grandma always said seven years bad luck for a broken mirror. So I grabbed the broom to sweep it up and somehow the broom handle cracked in two when I leaned on it wrong. Then I remembered my aunt swears you have to whisper sorry to the mirror pieces before you throw them out. I was standing there with a broken broom and a pile of glass literally apologizing out loud. Anybody else ever have a superstition backfire and make things worse?
I picked up one of those rabbit's foot keychains at a gas station outside Bakersfield last month after a rough delivery shift. Two days later, my van broke down on the 5 and I lost $400 in missed routes. Anybody else have an item they thought was lucky that totally backfired?
Honestly, I bought this hand-forged horseshoe from a seller who claimed it was from a winning racehorse and would bring good luck to my home office. Ngl, I hung it above my door and immediately got three client cancellations and a coffee spill on my laptop. Anyone else waste money on a superstition item that backfired completely?
I was at a casino in Reno last month and swore this one machine was my lucky charm because I won $60 on it once, lol. Ended up dumping $150 into it over 2 hours chasing that feeling and walked away with zero. Anyone else ever wasted cash on a superstition like a specific machine or ritual that totally let you down?
