uh dude he was fortunate

iwz iwz

uh dude same thing.

anyway, i think there's a difference between believing in luck, and being lucky that your car wasn't wrecked.

lucky: occurring by chance; fortuitous.

it has to do with chance. if chances are good that something awful will happen when your car rolls down a hill, yet, nothing does, how do you describe that? "oh, that's good that against all odds your car came out with only a scratch." might as well just shorten it to lucky. because, that's what the word means in this context. this is a lot different than believing in the luck of numbers or superstitious charms, and putting your faith in luck.

so, that's my rant of the morning, and it's just my opinion. :)

thank you so much for that explanation ian... i was not about to get into the whole "lucky vs. fortunate" thing.

superhero superheroOG 2004

ok fine you believe in luck BUT I THINK LUCK IS CRAP and so is punk music, i mean, i heard about luck one time from someone else and i thought "this is horrible and offends Christians" and it turns out i was right
