A good way to find out if it's a phrase, and not just a lucky object, is to search for the phrase on google.  "Lucky <word>" should return at least 100,000 results.  Of course, exceptions can be made if the phrase is legitimate, or particularly clever :)

This theme works best when you have one master and a number of slaves. The idea is that your master is 'lucky', and your slaves all complete the phrase. For instance:

  • Break
  • Chance
  • Charms
  • Day
  • Devil
  • Dice
  • Dog
  • Duck
  • Feeling
  • Me
  • Number
  • Penny
  • Rabbits Foot
  • Stars
  • Strike
  • Stiff
  • You
