What is the symbol of misfortune in your culture?

>number
"4", it sounds like "death" in Chinese
fun fact: most hospital here don't have 4th floor for obvious reason, no one wants 4(death)
>color
black, and sometimes red. black is associate with "dark", an old enemy of mankind. red is the color of blood, which makes writing someone's name in red has the same effect of blood writing, you only use it when there is a tremendous injustice.
>animal
crow, cause it's black and has a unpleasant voice.
>>
a nigger

The unlucky number is 13, I couldn't tell you why though. Apparently in America there are roads that don't have a number 13 house because it's considered unlucky. Friday the 13th is the unluckiest day of the year.

We don't have too many unlucky things, but we have lots of lucky things. For example if a bird poos on your shoulder it's good luck, or if a black cat crosses your path it's good as well. The only bad omen I can think of is smashing a mirror, then you get 7 years of bad luck. Also walking under a ladder

passing under stairs, throwing salt, black cats...

retarded things, that's why i hate pagan """""""culture"""""""
>>
>>77379207
Don't walk under ladders, the number 13, don't step on cracks on a road, etc.
>>
>>77379315
Is taht true that in UK when Ahmed fucks you girl it brings luck? Sounds kind of weird imho
>>
>>77379337
Interesting, here if you spill salt you're meant to throw some backwards over your left shoulder otherwise you'll have bad luck
>>
>>77379315
I was told as a kid that you shouldnt pass under ladders if it belongs to an arab, but if it belongs to a portuguese it's okay because you can rely on them

>don't step on cracks
When we were kids we used to say: "Who'll step on a line, falls in love with Hitler!"

Pro english tip - if you say "white rabbits" on the first day of the month, then you have good luck for that month.

it's common in Sinosphere. Japan don't like 4 either

>>77379608
Serious question - what crops are even grown in Finland? At those latitudes in the UK we mainly raise livestock because it's unsuitable for a lot of farming. I imagine you grow rye because you eat rye bread? What else?
>>
>>77379597
>>77379597
Jewish family anon. Any reason to shit on arabs were good enough.
And frankly portuguese are top tier immigrants. They worked hard for us and integrated quite well. They're just easy to pick on.
>>
>>77379769
nowdays jus about anything thanks to modern technology. back in the day it was just rye and later on potatoes. seasons are bit rough though so you cant afford to miss seasonal cues.

are you serious you fucking nigger ? it's because jesus had 13 disciples but judas the 13th one betrayed him

>>77379207
13
Black, same reason as yours
Cat because they were associated with witches.

I've never seen that sometimes buildings don't have a listed 13th floor though.

Haven't lingonberries always grown up there. Or are they not cultivated?

>>
>>77379207
Do you guys don't have something that you personally consider of bad luck?
Like, I always try to do something to the left side because the right side is bad luck, i. e. I never open a thread in the catalog if it is in the right side or when walking I always go around things blocking me by the left.
Also, I can't stand the sight of the number twenty-3.

Rye, oats, barley, wheat in the south.
Berries such as lingonberry, blueberry, cranberry, raspberry, strawberry.
Potatoes (when those got imported here in 18th century) before that turnips and rutabaga.

My grandmother told me that unflipped slippers or shoes instigate quarrels

>>77383879
Most of the berries grow wild.
