Insane Myths

My mom is always telling me traditions and myths from where she grew up in. Such as:

-When you've lost something, put a glass of water on the fridge. You'll find it. (Swear to goodness, this never failed on me.Other members/friends have tried this, and so far this hasn't failed on anyone.)

-NEVER put a purse on the floor. (It means) Money will climb out and run away.

-You can't hand a person salt at the dinner table. When passing a person salt, you put it down on the table in front of them. Handing it to them is bad luck.

So, what is the craziest myth/custom you've ever heard? From the famous "Black cat is bad luck" to water on the fridge.

Never sweep dirt out of the house.. or your head will like... fall off. Or something.

You're an insane Myth!

Insane myth i've heards:

- if a guy has sex before he's 18, his genatils will fall of.

-If your grandma's foot starts hurting, it means it will rain soon.

-If your mom or grandmom have a dream of fish, that means a girl in the family, whether it is a niece or cousin or daughter, is pregnant. (This has been accurate all the time, at least the times I know of. )

Those are some... peculiar myths crazy.. o-o

poprocks and coke will make you explode.

I tried it once. didn't work.

That if you stick your tongue in the freezer for two hours, it will fall off.

Lies. XP

When cooking pasta, and not sure if it's ready or not, pick out a noodle. Throw it at the wall. If it sticks, it's ready. If not, cook it for a little bit more.

o_o.. I cook pasta all the time. I'll try that next time.

If your mirror always fogs when you take a shower, rub a cucumber slice over your mirror and TADA unfogged mirror.

If campfire smoke follows you around, it means you're extremely attractive. :B

My mom told me this one today...

When somebody is about to say something, but they forget what it was, it was a lie.

Untrue, because when I remembered what I wanted to say, it wasn't a lie.

This works! I do it all the time :D!! But... On.. The ceiling... Where I can't reach it... My ceiling looks icky now XP

When you spill wine, quickly dip your fingers into the spilled wine and draw a cross over your forehead. For good luck.

Happened the other day and I found a chocolate bar I didn't know I had. Safe to say I believe it.

Why are you drinking wine?!?!

Because if you drink wine on the night of a full moon, your chances of turning into a werewolf are increased by .80%

Duuuh, Karma. >:l

If you smear shaving cream on your mirror and wipe it off, the mirror won't fog if you take a shower soon after.

If you drink water from a wolf's footprint, you will become a werewolf.

Same thing goes for if you eat meat from an animal a wolf has killed.

Witches float when thrown in the water; wizards, on the other hand, sink.

Vampires cannot enter a house without being invited; after they've been invited once, they can come and go as they please, even if the house changes hands.

A strange dog following you is good luck. A dog howling is a sure sign of death.

If a cat sneezes, it a sign of rain.

If a cat sneezes near a bride, she will have good luck in her wedded life.

The oil in the shaving cream prevents water from condensing on the surface of the mirror.

If you're drinking water out of a wolf's foot print, obviously you're in the woods near a wolf, if you're not going to turn into a werewolf you're going to turn into wolf-chow.

If you believe lycanthropy is a disease spread by wolf saliva, you could.

Wizards wear heavy robes, while witches practice naked.

Vampires are gentlemen.

If a strange dog likes you, it is less likely to kill you, if a wolf howls it is probably coming to kill you.

Thank you, TDG. Our very own Mythbuster. The story about witches VS. wizards is actually kind of interesting.

It wasn't my wine! My grandma's XD. Spilled in front of my mom, her, and me. Everyone scrambled for a little spilled wine luck.

As for the other myths, woooow. I kinda like my mirrors foggy, though.

Good... Cause I would have had to teach you a lesson about underage drinking, even though I do it myself... I'm a horrible role model >_>;

If you leave a penny for someone to find on purpose, intending for good luck to come to them, then you will recive twice their luck. Be it good or bad.

XD Penny Karma

Everyone eats at least one spider in their lives.... most of the time in their sleep... DX

In Japan, if you sneeze, somebody's talking about you. Once is something good, twice is something bad, thrice means somebody has a crush on you, and more than that is just a cold.
