Thanks, in for the Critter Chronicles.
Not really a superstition, but several times, shortly after I learned about some specific word or phenomenon, I stumbled about it in some unrelated situation. In some cases, the reason might be that before this occasion, I simply did not notice the thing in question (due to not knowing about it...), but not every time. Anyway, I would call those "funny coincidences", but then again one could argue that this is pretty much the definition of superstition ;-)
