Would a discounted ladder just be “kinda bad luck”?

LOL, but somehow I think the bad luck remains at the full sentence.

What about a black and white cat?

With a good lawyer you can get it down to 2 years, tops

Does Treetops have a good lawyer?

It’s still 7 years. But it’s only half-bad luck.

I vote yes, the bad luck is discounted. Superstition ain’t the way so at least halve it.

No, that would be 3 1/2 years of tribulation.

Still 7 years, but at least the cause was cheaper at the start. And Cosmo probably broke the mirror by looking into it. Nearly as scary as the Post Office mail-order clown.

If more than half the mirror remains in one piece, then it rounds up to a full seven years. Wait, do I have that backwards?

Where was the mirror made? Was it made in the states, or a foreign country?

If you have a mirror that is already cracked, is it bad luck if you break it again?

Wishful thinking
