I sure as heck dont. All that supersticious crap is really dumb. like that EA thing. all coincidences. i dont believe in Friday the 13th or breaking mirrors or any of that stuff. all of it is just really ridiculous and is fun when ur a kid but stupid in reality. Who agrees with me? or who doesnt and why?

There's a difference between luck and fate and superstition. Everyone has luck as I see it, doesn't mean I'm superstitious or that i believe in fate, I think you're confusing the concepts.

Being a poker player, of course I believe in luck to an extent.  If I get all my money in on a hand and end up being a huge dog to win, but manage to hit a card on the river to win the pot, I'd consider that lucky.  Sure, it all breaks down to probability, but I'm still lucky to have won while being the mathematical underdog.

Superstition and Luck are two different things really.

According to Superstition, luck can be changed and is an actual presense rather than a series of fortunate events that go your way.

Nope. There reason behind all happenings. You caught your bus right on time? That means you woke up on time and the bus kept to the schedule. You found money on the ground? That means someone dropped it and you were the only person to notice/pick it up.

I don't  'beleive'  in luck, but when I shoot through a double with an awp and get a double headshot i consider myself lucky, but I don't beleive it in it as "oh my luck will get better"  or  "well i've been pretty lucky, now things might go worse"  or whatever. It's hard to explain :lol:

Or when someone comes bursting through a door and unloads 6 rounds from a gun thats apparently bigger than him when he's standing no more than 10 feet from you and he hits nothing but the wall behind you. Thats just....

In your sig, you left out the best part of that sign. At the very bottom, it says, "Also the bridge is out ahead" Thats my favorite part of that sign.

A series of favorable and improbable outcomes happening in sequence?

Absolutely!  But there is nothing mystical or special about it.

You don't believe in luck because things just happen by chance!?  Things happening by chance IS luck!  Â
