    I don't know about not believing in luck itself, but I don't believe that someone can somehow hold on to luck or have luck 'attributed' to them for more than a single moment/event/occurance of such luck. Luck, to me, is just like chance. Sometimes things go your way, and that's lucky, and sometimes they don't, and that's unlucky.

    'Unlucky' things I have often done (after looking over Wikipedia)...
    Existed on Friday 13th.
    Used the number 13.
    Seen black cats (this doesn't happen as often in the UK, mind you).
    Stepped on cracks (my Mum's back has yet to break)
    Put a hat on my bed.
    Opened an umbrella indoors.
    Killed a spider in my house.
    Walked underneath ladders.
    Said 'Good luck'.
    Said 'Thankyou' to someone who had wished me good luck.
    Picked up a penny face-down.
    Put shoes on a table (I think I have, anyway. I don't remember doing it recently, though...)
    Seen one magpie.

    I don't believe I've ever broken a mirror, though.
    Bow before the mighty Javoo!

    It could be any 7. Years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, seconds, miliseconds.

    Who needs to break a mirror to feel like a victim of karma? It's just an excuse. But yeah, probably.
    This subliminal message could be meant for YOU. But it's probably not. Move along ;D

    I walked under a ladder, I think. I remember everybody going mad saying "ZOMFGH YOU STOOD UNDER A LADDAER!!1 ZOMG!"
    I broke a Mirror too. I don't believe in any of luck stuff, though Im almost positive my family is cursed. Every job we have done around the house goes wrong. Every single one! ^_^

    That's just another superstition to add to the list of stupid human pre-occupations with myth. Don't worry about it.

    I should be dead if bad luck works that way. I believe bad luck only follows you if you continue to worry about it. Then your not paying any attention to what is going on around you. Then something bad is bound to happen.

    The mirror thing is true, I'm 100% certain of that. I've broke enough mirrors to know. You've got to break another mirror after the one you've broken, because then that cancels out your bad luck.

    I say I'm not supersticious (sp?) but deep down I think I am.

    I've never broken one I don't think...but now I'm going to break a mirror so I can blame everything that happens to me on it for the next 7 years instead of myself...I enjoy the easy way out.

    Maybe your breaking of the next 999 mirrors after the first one was due to the bad luck from the first one, have fun with your 7000 years of bad luck.
