<p>[QUOTE="johnnycb09, post: 1678444, member: 27"]That is creepy ! Heres my weird picture story , if one is inclined to be superstitious (and I am <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> ) ...back in the mid 90s my partner and I had moved to Orlando for a great job . We found an awesome apartment wich was the mother in law suite of a house that was right on a gorgeous ravine. That yard was spectacular ,complete with a family of raccoons that were ridiculously tame . Anyhoo , we had been there a few months and things were going splendidly ,then one weekend I buy this print at a yard sale (mainly for the frame) . </p><p>One day I decide to take it apart and clean it and I find a picture of a very good looking turn of the century gent tucked behind. I was pretty stoked but my partner didnt like it ,claimed it gave him the heebee jeebies . Since my taste was always better than his ( so I claimed) I didnt listen and hung it up . </p><p>ALL of a sudden things started going horribly wrong . Our car ,wich was fine,broke down ,the job we had moved there for laid my partner off,the landlord comes and tells us the house was being sold ,my partner breaks his wrist, etc,etc. I mean it was one bad thing after the other ! </p><p>A friend comes over during all this drama and she hadnt seen the picture before,walks in,looks at it and declares "That guy was evil ,you should get rid of that " . I of course scoffed , but the idea was planted . A week or two later , as things are looking grim , out of desperation I take the picture down , carry it to the barbecue and burn it,frame and all . </p><p>I SWEAR to you almost immediately things completely turn around ! The car wich we thought needed expensive repairs turns out to only need a $50 part,the landlord stops by and says the house wasnt being sold after all , the job calls my partner back ,a complete 180 from the week before ! Probably coincidence , but Ive always thought objects can be infused with negative karma so ... Draw your own conclusions . <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
