This might belong in Universal Codes.

I was wondering if any of them have actually seemed to be valid, in your experience. My ears burn when someone is upset with me - generally, it's right for spite, and left for love, just as I was taught. My right ear is burning right now.

I know someone who predicted the birth of a girl, when she saw three magpies.

One for sorrow,
two for joy,
three for a girl,
four for a boy.

Oh yeah, I've heard of that one. But for me it never burns unless I'm embarrassed or something. Could be that I'm not paying attention to it too so I don't notice as much.

I've also heard about the one where if a bird poops on ya you get money. LOL, no thank you!

There is a superstition about eye twitching in my family though.. Actually this superstition is common for a lot of Asian families, but it differs for each; some say if your left eye twitches it means good luck, while right is bad (or vice versa). It always worked for me so I do believe in it to some degree.

when my right foot or palm itches, it means I am getting money.
Left eye twitching means you are going to get into an argument or someone is saying bad things about you.
when your breast itches, it means your partner is thinking about you sexually
I don't know where these things come from...lol

I will almost always pick up a heads-up penny that I find on the floor, in my house, anyway. Not in public, though. Sometimes I knock on wood.

I don't really know why I do those things; I don't really believe in them or see any relation to anything else, but I just always have done them.

also, as a side note, "Superstition" is a GREAT song by Stevie Wonder.

not a neurological issue, I take an efficient amount of vitamins.

It's just a pimple under the skin that is triggering the nerve. It will go away on its on soon. This is very common.
