"Birds pooping on you is good luck?

9 Feb

Apparently some people believe that it’s good luck when a bird poops on you.  I can’t imagine that this is something all that many people really believe — but in addition to blurbs about this on the Internetweb, some people in my real life as well have heard of this superstition.

Ok fine, if a bird poops on you one time, then you win the lottery the next day, even I would have trouble arguing against “the pooping” being good luck.   However, this scenario is quite unlikely.  What’s more likely is a bird pooping on you every day, for the rest of your life.  And to me (I don’t know about you), if I got pooped on every day,  I’d kinda feel like I have bad luck.
