Taboo Stuff

[jedamum]

Augmum:

Also, never place the bed inline with any door's entrance such as the room's door or toilet door.

never place mirror in front of the bed.

titank:

Never place TV facing the bed that you are sleeping.

the above are supposedly FS beliefs.

if want to have TV in bedrm, use a cloth to cover it when not in use, or not directly facing the bed, cos its reflective screen simulate the mirror.
no mirror in room is cos believed to be '3rd party' in the marriage, and 3rd party definition includes PIL inteference.

i have a few 'taboo' rules for my kids to follow, some being superstition/stuff that i heard since young, some being FS thing that i read about, and some are purely stuff i made up so that the kids will not make a nuisance of themselves at inappropriate time. :politebleah:

anyone got any taboo stuff - out-of-bound hands-off stuff - which u have set with ur kids?

few of the strict rules at home to be observed at all times
- kids cannot hang used clothings in their bedrooms - hygiene purpose
- all shoes to be kept onto the shoe rack - housekeeping purpose (supposedly FS purpose too)
- keep the toilet lid and toilet door of the common toilet closed at all times - hygiene purpose (supposedly FS purpose too).

taboo stuff, only ds1 understands; ie no asking of weird questions or talking nonsense or talk loudly when walking pass funeral wake at void deck. once, he asked me if they were having a celebration.

as my ds1 freaks out quite a bit with regards to taboo practices/stuff, i usually use a practical explanation (like above) to get him to follow some of my rules.

omg...my bed (head) is directly beside the door, is it still counted? O.O

anyways, here's to share some stuff about hotels that I've heard from people.

-Always knock the door before you go in.
-Once you enter, say politely that you're gonna borrow the room for whatever number of days and say thank you.
-Never place your shoes neatly, it's said that it's easier for 'them' to wear the shoes.
-Place stuff/objects on unoccupied beds or seats, so as to not let them be occupied by 'them'.

beside the door, still ok....
so long the bed is not inline with the door's entrance, so as when lying down the legs are not facing the door.
best position as i was told is the farthest end diagonally,
able to see the door but not inline with.

oh.....for this, i had a \"strange encounter\" when i was in one of the hotel's room.....
i could see the images of the movement of my bedroom slippers, (i was lying on the bed)
after which i remembered this saying, i quickly moved my slippers,
placing one of them upside down.
immed i woke my hub up, but he could not see anything after i had moved my slippers :roll:
and he din believe what i had seen
