Russian culture does this shit to teach kids not to have bad habits like: “don’t pick your nose you’ll break your finger” and “if you look at dogs pee you will go blind”
Ayden Torres
What would they say about this then?
Sebastian Price
probably some shit like, 'you wont have sex again if you watch dogs have sex' or "your penis will fall off"
Nathan Brooks
That would explain the current state of Russia
Dominic Gray
is the "staring at dog pee instead of going to work at potato factory" problem that big of an issue over there?
Robert Thomas
>potato factory
i remembered some more: 'if you forget something at home, and dont look at the mirror before you leave, you will die" 'if you shake hands or say good bye to some one through a door frame, that person will die' 'if your friend has an eye infection, scare them and spit into their eye' 'if you have foot pain, bind a piece of feces to your foot'
Daniel Kelly
>Fyodor come here >>what is it babushka? >i must tell you of secret, Fyodor >>babushka, i must work in potato mine >Fyodor, if you do not follow this arbitrary set of architectural and interior design rules, you will die or cause others to die >>Babushka WTF >you must listen. Please Fyodor >>you must take potato medicine, babushka >spit in your friend's eye, Fyodor >tie poop to your feet
William Lee
What am I supposed to do when my dog is pissing?
Gavin Ramirez
some more 'if you step over a person while they are lying down, they will stop growing' 'if you cross your eyes, they will remain that way forever' 'if you want to catch fish on a fishing trip, you cannot wash your hands after using the bathroom that morning'
Eli Ross
This is the best kind of retarded
if you remember any more pls share
Nathan Evans
some mo
'If it rains on someone's wedding, it means they'll be wealthy' 'If a bird shits on you, is somehow good luck' 'If you find a bay leaf in your soup, you will get a letter in the mail' perhaps email 'If someone whistles inside a house, they will become financially irresponsible and lose money.' 'Accidentally breaking a glass is considered good luck.'
Benjamin Rogers
I've heard the "cross your eyes = that way forever" one in the US too
Sebastian Lee
>'if you step over a person while they are lying down, they will stop growing' >'if you cross your eyes, they will remain that way forever' Both in my culture. i think some are the universal truths passed down with the tides of time
Camden Cooper
>if you look at dogs pee you will go blind lmao
Ayden Myers

Zachary Hughes
>'if your friend has an eye infection, scare them and spit into their eye'
Adam Ortiz

Thomas Gutierrez
>Russian culture does this shit to teach kids Well this is not restricted to russians. In france they tell kids that if there is a draft while they're squinting they'll get stuck like that.

Luke Stewart
>'If a bird shits on you, is somehow good luck'
interestingly, this one exists in almost every human culture
it's to make you feel better about birds shitting on you
Dominic Brooks
Serb here,
>a fan or draft will kill you, especially if you're sleeping
Dunno why but all old people think drafts are the scariest thing ever
>bird shit is good luck We have this one too
William Torres
Fyodor then went underground and wrote books about over-emotional people.
Jaxson Hill
There is a subculture online of feminists that are depraved painsluts in bed. Empowerment means choosing what you want without being shamed or w/e
Lincoln Cruz
Feminists are only even a thing right now because they shame women for heteronormative behavior and their natural inclinations.
I want to brutally hatefuck a feminist into tears right now.
Noah Adams
My chink gf had tons of these. I can't remember much of them. >If you eat more than one orange you have to balance your body with other fruit (like apple) otherwise heat and cold aren't balanced >more than one egg? Stop it or you die > Mirror in the entrance hall? Never get successful because all luck will leave >Don't flip over the fish on the table. ESPECIALLY not on new year or your curse literally everyone around you >Take of your slippers pointing towards the bed? Get ready for ghost-rape during sleep. And more. Even the ones with high education are really superstitious.
Josiah Torres

Chase Watson

Jace Harris
>if you burn your finger touch your earlobe >all the family has to sit down before leaving on a trip >if a knife falls down someone will soon knock on the door >if your palm itches you will come on some money soon
Adrian Murphy

Tyler Baker
Sounds like old wives tales in the UK desu.
>if you're making a face and the wind changes it gets stuck that way forever >if cows are lying down in the fields it means its going to rain because the cow's keeping their spot warm and dry >seeing 1 magpie in a tree is bad luck and you have to greet it and ask where its husband/wife is to negatr the bad luck >there are different meanings linked to the number of magpies you see in a tree, up to 10 >walking under ladders is bad luck >breaking a mirror is 7 years bad luck >spilling salt is bad luck, throwing some of it over your shoulder negates it >shoes on the table is bad luck >wood can absorb bad luck and you touch it as a sort of "anti jynx" mechanism when stating something
Ryan Scott
>masturbation makes you blind/gives you hairy palms >cheese before bed gives you nightmares >opening an umbrella inside is bad luck
Dylan Allen
My grandma from Indonesia would always tell me that if I continued to bite my nails then someday the nail would get stuck inside the side of my throat, that they can't remove it and that I would die horribly.
Lucas Cox
The cheese one is correct actually. Lots of proteins and fats before sleep will lead to more vivid dreams. And vivid dreams, one's you become aware and conscious in the middle of espescially, oft transforms into scary and nightmarish things.
Cooper Cruz
its left palm for gaining money, and right one for losing. surprisingly, happened to me couple of times xd
Christian Long
There's a rhyme for magpies in the UK as well regarding how many you see: >one for sorrow >two for joy >three for a girl >four for a boy 3 magpies means someone you know is going to have a baby girl soon, 4 means they'll have a boy.
Jace Gray
That's the most slav shit I have ever seen in a picture.
Nathan Watson
