RE: They happen in threes apparently

in #life7 years ago

The bad luck in threes comes from the great war, actually. Soldiers would never light 3 cigarettes on one match, no matter how low in the trenches they sat. The reason for this was that 3 people grouped up were an easy target for a sniper.

And now you know!

I actually knew that and had forgotten it. I have visited the trenches and it wasn't only snipers. They were literally about 10 meters apart at some parts of the line and I wouldn't even be the second guy with the match. Thanks for reminding me about this one.
