I press the AC button on my calculator twice before beginning a new calculation.

Don't look at mirrors at night.

Have you ever thought if you're at an unfamiliar house and it's night and you look anywhere at all that there might be a mirror there you're looking at but you can't see it because it is night you see?

I never put keys on a table, and get kind of miffed if someone I know puts mine on one. This happens somewhat often, since I work in a bar and every so often someone has to borrow my keys to get into the keg room, or something like that.

I thought for the longest time that it was from the north (of Sweden) since the only other person I know who does the same also has parents from the north, but when I spoke about it with my mother (who is the person I learned it from), she told me she learnt it from my paternal grandmother (who was from Uruguay), so I have no idea where the idea comes from.

It comes from not scratching up the surface. If you always drop your keys on a table in the vestibule for instance (as a lot of people do), eventually you'll just ruin the finish. It's a very small leap to just not leaving your keys on any table.
