FSU superstition - If you say something is or is not going to happen, the opposite of what you say is going to then occur because you talked about it. Best I can tell this comes from the "loose lips sink ships" policy of the USSR. Say nothing, see nothing, hear nothing. Mind your business. Etc.

Example - You DO NOT say, "you will pass your interview with no problem." Because by saying that, you just personally insured her downfall. She WILL fail because you talked about it.

I've tried and tried to say, "tonight I will NOT win the lottery." Still waiting for my millions.... (And my wife's still telling me someday we will win.)

I found it interesting that Russians don't have the "never open an umbrella in the house" superstition. But they sure make up for it with a hundred other kooky ones.

Yep. I like that one. We should do one for the MOB.

Ensure your beneficiary makes and brings with them to the States a copy of the DS-3025 (vaccination form)

If the government is going to force me to exercise my "right" to health care, then they better start requiring people to exercise their Right to Bear Arms. - "Where's my public option rifle?"
