Well, let me just be the first to say that I am usually not a superstitious person or a "Fwd: Fwd: Fwd:" whore. I actually hate those people (not you mom-- you get a free pass). However, thanks to the post below, I am now a "Fwd: Fwd: Fwd:", chain letter sending, you'll have bad luck for seven years, yaddah, yaddah, yaddah H.H. (hypocritical ho).
Aforementioned Post:
"This year July has 5 Fridays 5 Saturdays & 5 Sundays. This happens once every 823 years. This is called money bags. Copy this to your status and money will arrive in 4 days. Based on Chinese philosophy. Those who read and do not copy will be without money."
It was an average Saturday. I got up, went to the gym, had breakfast and then logged onto facebook. I look at the right hand side of the screen. "People you may know". For once I actually know one of the people-- it's one of my high school teachers. Friend request! After requesting the friendship, naturally I look at her page to stalk her... only to find myself staring at the Chinese proverb above. FUCK.
This cannot be good. I shake my head back and forth. These things are silly-- I definitely don't believe them. Nope. Do not believe. I scrunch up my face really small and close my eyes to make it go away. PEEK-A-BOO. I let one eye open enough to see the screen. DAMNIT. Still there. Oh fuck. Yup, I gotta do it. I have to post it to my wall, because I am that silly.
COPY. PASTE. POST. gah. I am not at all happy with myself, I am one of THOSE people.
4 days pass...
Can I say this? Did it actually work? Did I get money BECAUSE i posted the proverb? If I say no will I make the Chinese proverb gods mad? And will they throw dirty yen in my face and call me a loser? I do not know. But, I do know that I was refunded $80.59 for a half marathon that I signed up for, because by some miracle the race was rerouted to go through the property I work at. Comp entries for all employees! Coincidence? Mrrr. hard to say.
