Today is the first of the month, and for some reason I remembered to say “rabbit” first thing. Good luck is guaranteed – nice, since I’m in talks for a job I really want.
Silly rabbit. Twicksters are for kids.
Isn’t that funny, I told my boys about that last night for the first time, and apropos of nothing. I thought it was unique to my family.
Though with us it was this: the last thing you say on the last day of the month is “rabbit, rabbit” and the first thing you say in the morning is “bunny, bunny” and then you get good luck. Evidently in my family you have to work harder for your luck.
In our family it was always “white rabbit”.
Gilda Radner always said “Bunny Bunny” on the first day of the month. SNL writer Alan Zweibel used “Bunny Bunny” as the title of his memoir about his friendship with her.
Great reading!
I’ve never heard of that. But I do know that if the smoke from a campfire is getting in your face, saying “Rabbit rabbit rabbit” will make it go away.
I saw two bunnies on my morning walk today. Does that count for good luck?
I thought it was 'I hate rabbits!"
Coyote!
What?
Okay, I don’t think I understand this thread. hangs head
I always say “Rabbit, rabbit,” and I remembered today 
Hooray for all our July luck!
You can’t say the word “rabbit” if you live in Portland, UK
Well, you can, but you won’t be popular.
For those who cannot be bothered to click the links…saying the word out loud in Portland will cause landslips, earthquakes, etc. I’m serious.
The first link is to a map of Portland.
The second is a 2005 BBC article about how Portland had to have specially commissioned posters advertising “Curse of the Were-Rabbit” that did not actually mention the word “rabbit”.
I love this country 
Huh…never heard of this one. But, what the hell, I said it.
Now that lady that looked at our house on Sunday and “loved it” better make with a full-price offer.
Quite possibly you were too late – it has to be the very first thing you say the first day of the month. Usually I start off with some version of “what the hell are you doing” (addressed to one or both of the cats), if I even remember it’s the first, which I rarely do.
Fingers crossed on the house sale though!
Zombie rabbit!
