The Unluckiest Guy in the World

Spill some salt (and then don't toss some over your shoulder)
Drop a penny and then fail to pick it up (thus ensuring that "all the day you'll have god luck" won't happen)
 
I'm playing 666 on Cash 3 tomorrow.

Try it! :D
That's brilliant! If you win, no one will ask you to borrow the money!

(Btw, at my company, database record numbers which include 666 are left empty or deleted.)
 
I gotta get some sleep so i can get an early start in the morning.
Don't forget to put your hat on the bed! Serious bad luck.

Oh, I forgot, here's how to be really unlucky for a long long time.... Say to your wife/girlfriend, "No, honey, that dress doesn't make you look fat. Your @$$ makes you look fat."

You will instantly become seriously unlucky.
 
I just read this whole thread. Did I miss it or did no one say to be served wine in a cracked glass?

Walk around with your shoes untied.

Drive blindfolded.
 
Go in your front door and out the back.

Do it all in the Bermuda Triangle.




Break a leg!
 
If your Jewish.
after you swept your floor, sweep the dirt out the front door instead of a dust pan.
 
Get married, and force your bride to step cross the threshold, and trip her on the way.
 
Don't hang a horseshoe over your front door. Or if you must, hang it ends down. That way, the luck runs out.
 
Well, it's my birthday today! There's not a lot I can do about that unfotunately so it's not so much an "act" as a state-of-being.

Actualy so far everything's been hunky-dory (Time-of-writing 3.40PM). I've had an e-card off the admin here; it's the only forum I'm a member of to send me one.

The only bad thing that's ever happened to me (so far) on Friday the 13th is that I fell over at school and had to retire from the annual Sports Day. I was pretty gutted because I knew I could win several events!

I think the unluckiest thing that could happen today would be if I decided to watch one of the truly apalling horror films with today's date as its title!
 
A common superstition you see acted on in the UK is not passing someone on the stairs. It drives me mad if I'm going up a broad staircase and some idiot (usually a middle-aged woman) stands at the top like a fool waiting for me to get there.

Whenever this happens, I always ask if the person is superstitious, and they always are.
 
Get into a gunfight with Dirty Harry, then when he catches up to you, you can forget if he fired six shots or only five. That would be unlucky, punk.

Long, long ago in a DBA job far, far away, my company had a famous televangelist's corporation as a client. We needed to change his client ID and one of the nearest available IDs was 666. I was in the process of changing it when my boss noticed and suggested I consider the career implications if I were to make that change. If only I hand't been laughing maniacally he might not have wandered by. I probably could have convinced HR that not being Xtian I didn't know the implilcation of the number. Drat!

Is that why they wait? I always assumed it was because they thought they were too fat.
