I HATE people that think walking over 3 drains will give them bad luck.
most of the time you see people jumping the last one in the street and it's actually just a cable access cover.

I know a girl who's scared of walking on manholes and those kinds of things on the street
Her amble down the road involves a large amount of swerving, hopping past things and outright crossing the road when there's a dense thicket of drain covers.

Eventually she'll get hit by the car when needlessly crossing over
thus proving the theory of evolution weeding out the thickos

Stop being a SILLY.

people who honestly believe that anything at all is either good or bad luck,
do they never stop to think to themselves, "hang on a minute, that's completely daft!"?

Yeah, but what if we're in an matrix style AI construct and things like a single magpie are the program's flags for bad events
