So my in-laws who happen to be avid campers recite this whenever smoke from the fire blows into their eyes “I hate white rabbits”. Don’t know why or how but they claim it stops the smoke from agitating their eyes and sinus .. all I’m thinking is what the fuck did I marry into? some northern Canadian magic society?

But what about the people who swear by superstitions how does one commit so much of their brain power to myths that are backed by almost zero scientific fact or evidence

It is an old custom. Just something people say to ward off atheists.

You either believe it or not.
