Hmm, maybe table 14 thought the couple was Chinese and decide to 14-them.
Lol...umm yeah I think the last bit of your final paragraph negates the first of the same paragraph. 🫣
I grew up in a house with the number 24. The address was 24 forth street, Forthtown. What could go wrong? Ok, not really, but the house number was 24.
I think most people have a superstition of some kind, even just a very small thing like a favourite/like clothing item or jewelry or some such thing. I remove a button on one sleeve of my business shirts and re-sew it using purple thread for instance...I did a post on why I do this back a while. I see nothing wrong with that stuff as long as it doesn't inhibit ones life.
Also, isn't number 8 considered a lucky number for the Chinese? Here they all scramble to get 8's into their car license plates.
If you ever see a bunch of cars with many 8s on their plates at a random place on Sunday, you can bet there's a good Chinese restaurant around for yum cha.
8 sounds like rich/make money, so 168 (one road rich) or 138 (one life rich) are lucky numbers, as are 88 or 888 of course 🤑🤑🤑
Definitely nothing wrong with a little superstition or habit in life, it's all to do with a peace of mind. And that's the most important
Haha, the yum cha comment! 😆
