I was going to label this BS, but decided that it really IS folk stuff.

This thread is for all those frequently observed phenomena that have gone completely unnoticed by the scientific community.

For starters. Have you noticed that garbage cans (dustbins) repel onion skins? Throw an onion skin in the garbage and it WILL miss. Look around any garbage bin and you will see onion skins that have been rejected by the garbage bin.
