So the witch will climb out and get me because I didn't crush my empty eggshells.

I also just scooped the salt into the bin and didn't throw it over my shoulder.

My demise should be quite flamboyant.

You're meant to crush egg shells?! Maybe that's why I haven't won the lottery yet?

@Beargrin

Obviously.

Maybe you should go the whole hog, OP. Tread on the cracks in the pavement, walk under a few ladders, refuse to greet single magpies, turn your lucky horseshoe upside down, open your umbrella indoors. Then brace for the apocalypse...!

I thought not crushing egg shells drowned sailors? Baba Yaga uses them to sail the seas and start storms.

if you are at it:

put new shoes on the table,
stand between ash trees,
do laundry in the Holy Week,
turn the wall calendar before the new day has arrived,
find a black cat to cross your path from right to left
