We may deny it in front of others but all of us are superstitious, may be a little bit but everyone follows some sort of superstition. The most common being the sitting or standing position that a person keeps while watching cricket as he and his family or friends feel that till the time the person will remain in that position, the team will play well.

In routine life also, people follow superstition even though they are aware of the fact that it has no base and logic. But human heart is quite difficult to control and whatever it says, a person obeys most of the time. The micro-blogging site Twitter was flooded with tweets in which people shared their own superstitions and what bet they make with the Universe for some silly and stupid reason.

It happened after an online user with the Twitter handle @sherylpajuro asked others whether they have also placed random bets with the Universe as she used to do. She revealed that she used to place a bet that if she can throw her pen in the drawer, she will get an ‘A’ on her assignment. As we can see, there is no logic in this bet because the grade of the assignment will depend on how she has done it rather than on throwing the pen in the drawer.

Check out the tweet:

Do you guys ever place random bets with the universe like if I can throw this pen into that drawer I’ll get an A on my assignment ??? Just me??

After her tweet, many people shared their own random bets and you will certainly enjoy while reading them. Here are some of the selected ones:

Throwing a pair of socks in the laundry bag from my bed accounted to one chocobar after dinner in college!😂

I do many such things, like for example whenever a website does not load , I just say in mind that if it gets loaded this time, this will happen to me. Not just you. https://t.co/WqaBrfB5QL

Yes! In fact when I win bets I’m like yay! But if I do not then I also console myself that it’s just a random bet and nobody would know.

Lost a cricket match back in college coz of this. My friend tossed a bottle cap towards a dustbin & watched it fall short. Turned to me & said “Bhai maine yeh wish kiya tha ki agar yeh cap dustbin mein chalaa gaya toh hum kal ka match jeet jayenge”. Still haven’t forgiven him. 😏
