Today my bike was caught in between the line of fire of a bird and the ground. Hence my bike got hit by one of its "bullet". What an awful sight, I must say. But in turn, my girlfriend who was beside me said, " Bird shit means good luck." 
I was reflecting on it and was quite amused. Of course, my girlfriend meant it in a nice way, trying to cheer me up. But still, how could people be so gullible. Who the hell started this nonsense that bird shit means good luck. So being me I went to google on it. Who started this bullshit, or rather bird shit. I couldn't found the people who started this weird culture in Singapore. But more interestingly, people all around the world believe that bird shit brings good luck.
For example in Rome, people there will not laugh at you at all but instead will smile and congratulate you for being lucky. In fact, one blogger accounts, the whole city is filled with bird dropping. The authorities or anyone are not allow to kill these pigeons. Everywhere there's bird shit. Car owners there don't wipe off the bird shit because 1) it brings good luck and 2) I think they couldn't be bothered. As soon as their cars leave their garage "shits" starts flying towards their cars. I think I can imagine them with umbrellas, trying to shelter themselves from raining bird shits.
At least here, we are lucky that our government control the population of this pest. I don't want to smell like shit when I'm meeting my girlfriend. Still, Im determine more than ever to find out the guy who is responsible for this mis-teachings.
