Very Superstitious

Today my ears started to ring. I know a common superstition if one of your ears rings, somebody is talking good about you. If the other ear rings, somebody is talking about about you. It was bugging me because I could not remember which ear meant which scenario. I was online and found so many outrageous superstitions. some of them I follow, some are just ludicrous.
The most common ones are...
-it is bad to put a hat on a bed,
-a bird in the house is a sign of death,
-making wish on birthday candles,
-do not step on the crack of the sidewalk,
- if you drop a fork that means a man will visit,
-bad luck to walk under a ladder,
- break a mirror and you have 7 years of bad luck,
-do not put a pair of new shoes on a table,
-wish on a shooting star,
- if you eat a watermelon seed a watermelon will grow in your stomach,
-and knock three type on wood after mentioning good fortune.
Some of the bazaar superstitions are...
-If 13 people sit at a table to eat dinner, one of them will die before the year is over,
-if you take a picture of 3 people, the person in the middle will die first,
-if you drop scissors, your lover is being unfaithful to you,
- an acorn should be carried to bring good luck,
-see and ambulance is bad luck unless you pinch your nose, hold your breath, until you see a black or brown dog,
-if you kill a bee in your home you will have bad luck,
-you you say good-bye to a friend on a bridge, you will never see each other again,
-cows lifting up their tails is a sure sign that rains is coming.
These are just some superstitions, I suggest you take a look at the rest. It is very interesting.
