Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. When you spill salt, what should you do?

Answer: sprinkle a little salt in your right hand and throw it over your left shoulder

2. What does it mean when you suddenly shiver for no reason?

Answer: someone just walked over your future grave

3. If your ears are hot then someone is what?

Answer: talking about you

4. According to superstition, why should you cover your mouth when you sneeze?

Answer: to keep your soul from escaping

5. What does it mean when a bird pecks on your window?

Answer: someone in your home will soon die

6. If your nose itches -

Answer: company is coming

This also indicates that you are likely to be involved in an argument.
7. If you accidentally drop a dirty dishtowel on the floor who's coming to see you?

Answer: someone who is very dirty

If you drop a knife, a man is coming. A spoon, a child. A fork, an old woman.
8. What does it mean when your left palm itches?

Answer: money is coming your way or money will soon be lost

This superstition has many varied interpretations. In some cultures it means that you will soon receive money (as long as you don't scratch the itch) and an itch in the right palm means you will soon be paying out. In other cultures, the meaning switches between left and right.
9. What does it mean when the bottom of your feet itch?

Answer: you'll soon walk on ground new to you

10. If you pull out a gray hair superstition says this will happen to you.

Answer: you'll get three more

Of course, this is scientifically impossible. Each hair follicle only produces one hair at a time - not three! Could you imagine the balding men pulling out hairs in the hope of tripling the number they had?
