slept with a friends girlfriend under an open umbrella and a black cat ran over us

With the exception of sleeping with someone else' husband, I have done all of the above. Then again, I believe that we make our own luck. I suppose that's good, seeing as my mother owns 5 black cats...

Being left handed in a right handed world.

Haven't ever slept with a friend's spouse/significant other, but I've probably done everything else on this list. I'll add myself to the list of people who don't really believe luck. I think there are good things that happen and bad things that happen; sometimes we can influence events and sometimes we can't. I think though that our choices can influence future possibilities, in that some things become more or less likely to happen as a result of past actions.

Played at the blackjack table after having won at the slots.

Well, unlike most on here, I do believe in luck, but I'm not superstitious -- and good thing, too. I'm a network engineer, and regularly walk under my ladder while I'm pulling wires, I'm always tripping over my black cat (we're talking 2 or 3 times a day -- she's kind of a dumb cat), and I've broken a few mirrors back when I was a dentist's assistant, enough to give me a couple lifetime's bad luck.
But hey, 2011 turned out to be a pretty good year in spite of it :-) I guess I'm more of a "it's me vs. luck/fate, and I'm gonna come out on top if it kills me!" sorta guy.

handcuffed myself to the cutest girl in high school

I Love those chocolate oranges. So Good !

Bought none Ford vehicles. Every time I do someone rear ends me at a light or stop sign. Or this last time I made a Geico commercial, except not a squirrel, damn cats....

Yep. I'm with the "no such thing as luck" group. Mathematically speaking, there's a good probability that everything will eventually happen.

All of the above, except it was my best friend's sister that I slept with, not his wife.

I am obviously not in the minority on unlucky... but I remain convinced my worst luck ever came about when I placed an order with Nutritionland... now that experience leaves all others in the dust of unlucky. I will stick with Wooting.

I left the room to pee during the last 25 woot-offs and a BAG OF CRAP came up. Missed every one.

Other: Thought about giving a child up for adoption, then lost the child when I changed my mind at birth.

All of the above, except the spouse thing. My friends are too young for that. Haha. Anyway, I actually had to open an umbrella the other day for a customer because she believed it was bad luck. People these days... The only "bad" luck from all of the above is as follows: the ladder if it falls on you, the cat if it attacks you, the mirror if it cuts you, and the umbrella if it pinches you. But then these days with the button automatic ones that's not really possible. There's also the stepping on the cracks in the sidewalk. That just trips you, as I've learned too many times. Oops...

Actually, did you know where the broken mirror story came from? In the olden days, a mirror was a luxury for poor families. Parents told their kids it was bad luck because it usually took about seven years for them to save enough money for another new mirror.

Looks like I've done everything on the list, and slept with my best friends boyfriend for two years.... Damn, I sound evil!

Woke up after a night of drinking next to the mother-in-law.....with the father-in-law on also in the bed

That's why I bought three Xooms from woot and a Thrive from Amazon. Using my Thrive now, so if you want to send me a bag today, I'll gladly pay you $8 tomorrow!

got married

I've always had generally good luck, so I picked the black cat option since, well, I have a cat. That's black. He's my baby. :3

for you that have slept with a friends spouse...imagine that happening to you. This has to be the worst thing a friend can do to another friend.

301 people (almost 24%) have slept with their best friend's spouse? Wakko Talks Faboo!

I'm a bit dismayed that 21% have slept with their best friend's spouse...

DITTO!
Agreed. I nearly had to destroy a best friend. But my wife shut him down ;~)

I don't believe in luck, so I have never done anything unlucky.

I have done all of these things (except that they weren't/aren't married and we had his permission).

I was on a ladder and my black cat walked underneath it. I'm not sure what that signified.

All the above several times each, except sleeping with best friend's spouse.

Actually having done everything on the list several times and have had wonderful luck through out my fifty plus years. The only unlucky thing that has happened to me has been being born in the later half of the twentieth century in America. Fortunately creating my own luck has been enough to even over come that.

Oh man...too funny!!

Me, too, except the Marine Corps. However, I did learn how to cuss well.

And I swear I didn't know she was married.
Honest.
