Ducky Luck

Do you have any good luck charms?
A rock, rabbit's foot, horseshoe what brings you good luck?

a shirt on my back,pants on my legs,and shoes on my feet...always signs of something better happening than what would happen if you ran around nude all the time.

Thinking about it, I don't really have any good luck charm.

nothing really lucky. but i have a lucky wrench (yes, wrench, yes i carry it with me). if i hadn't had the wrench in my pocket i would have been jabbed real hard by a stray flu-shot needle. So now the wrench lives in me pocket.

Well, a couple of weeks ago I would have answered a pack of smokes...although that would be everyone else's luck charm because without those I'm a pretty terrible mess, and not all that pleasant either. But I'm trying quit *tears at hair* so I'd have to say.....a padded room? lmao.

I find that I do better in most situations if i have at least.... 60 dollars in my wallet

I don't believe in luck. Odds and probability yes, luck no.

I don't believe in it either so I don't have anything.

an assault rifle. it has saved me from being mugged 3 times, being attacked by an angry mob (whose friends had tried to mug me), the police (guess why) and 18 people from some army somewhere.

I'm not much into luck myself, but if I don't wear a watch I feel naked- and when you're naked, things are bound to go wrong. (that is of course if the nudity doesn't involve another woman or the great helping hand)

I can think of plenty of things that could go wrong in both situations.

I completly agree, it's just weird. I very rarely am without my watch but when I forget to put it on it is like there is a piece of me missing. Also it is dead annoying when you want to know then time.

I used to wear a watch, but mine broke, and I'm too lazy to fix it.
If I want to check what time it is, I just check my cellular.

oh god, I could never wear a watch again. When i wore a watch i spent all my time checking what bloody time it was. Besides the only watch i'll ever wear are the oldfashioned wind-up kind. But by the same token, i feel naked without my wallet and palm pilot now. So same thing I guess.

there is no such thing as luck, just pointless superstitions and outdated hubba jubba about witchcraft and black magic.

i have a dime i've kept in my coat pocket for about a year or so, i rub it compulsively, which sounds relaly wrong, but whenever i have my hand on it, i have good luck

i have some weird superstitions to ensure good luck
i'm convinced that if i think of something happening, it won't, so i'll just imagine the worst possible thing happening, and usually it doesn't
