Superstitions

Hey, today is the 3rd day, of the 3rd month, of 2003.
Any weird significance to that do you think?

"Good things come in threes" is what I have always heard...

Third time pays for all.

Speaking of superstitions, I think they are overrated.

I personally prefer hyperstitions.

And of course, who'se interested in understitions and substitions.

Evenstitions are pretty blahh.

Oh well.

three strikes and you're out.

It's more -stitious than a superstition.

Utmoststition
Hyperstition
Superstition
averagestition
evenstition
sosostition
substition
understition
upchuckstition
